Physics Question on Ray optics and optical instruments

A bi-convex lens of focal length 10 cm is cut perpendicularly to principal axis.
Find Power (in D) of new lens.

Answer

After cutting the bi-convex lens, Focal length of individual lens is f=20cm=0.2m
\therefore P=1f=5D\frac{1}{f}=5\,D
The correct answer is 5D.
