ANSWER
H1 = +2.5cm
u = -25cm
f = +20cm
1/f = 1/v + 1/u
1/20 = 1/v -1/25
1/v = 1/20 + 1/25
1/v = 9/100
v = +11.11 cm
m = h2/h1 = -v/u
h2/2.5 = -11.11/-25
h2 = +1.11 cm
Hence the image will be formed at 11.11 cm behind the mirror, which will be virtual, erect and of 1.11cm size.

Answer:
h1 = +2.5cm
u = -25cm
f = +20cm
1/f = 1/v + 1/u
1/20 = 1/v -1/251/v
= 1/20 + 1/25
1/v = 9/100
v = +11.11 cm
m = h2/h1 = -v/u
h2/2.5 = -11.11/-25
h2 = +1.11 cm
Hence the image will be formed at 11.11 cm behind the mirror, which will be virtual, erect and of 1.11cm size.
