the radii of curvatures of front and  rear surfaces of a thin convex lens   are 30cm and 12cm respectively.   what is its focal length when placed  inside water? (take the refractive  indices of glass and water to be 1.52  and 1.33 respectively

(1/f)=((μ_(glass) /μ_(water) )−1)((1/R_1 )−(1/R_2 ))      =(((1.52×3−4)/4))((1/(30))+(1/(12)))  (1/f)=((0.14×7)/(60))=((0.98)/(60))  f=((60)/(0.98))≈60(1.02)=61.2cm
1f=(μglassμwater1)(1R11R2)=(1.52×344)(130+112)1f=0.14×760=0.9860f=600.9860(1.02)=61.2cm

((μ_(glass) /μ_(water) )−1)=((1.52−4)/4)??  you had ((1.52×3−4)/4)
(μglassμwater1)=1.5244??youhad1.52×344
