By aaplying mirror formula:
1/v - 1/u = 1/f
Sign convention is distance from the center of the lens to be positive in one direction and negative in the other.
=> 1/12 - 1/u = 1/10
=> 1/u = 1/12 - 1/10 = - 1/60
=> the object to be place on side opposite to that of the wall
at a distance of 60 cm. from the lens.
Hope this helps you!!!
