उत्तर
Magnification of a convex lens is either positive or negative.
Explanation:
A convex lens can form real or virtual images depending on the position of the object. If the image is real and inverted, the magnification is negative. If the image is virtual and erect, the magnification is positive. Therefore, magnification of a convex lens is either positive or negative.
