Two thin biconvex lenses have focal lengths $f_{1}$ and $f_{2}$. $A$ third thin biconcave lens has a focal length of $f_{3}$. If the two biconvex lenses are in contact,the total power of the lenses is $P_{1}$. If the first convex lens is in contact with the third lens,the total power is $P_{2}$. If the second lens is in contact with the third lens,the total power is $P_{3}$,then:

$A$ convex lens $A$ of focal length $20 \, cm$ and a concave lens $B$ of focal length $5 \, cm$ are kept along the same axis with a distance $d$ between them. If a parallel beam of light falling on $A$ leaves $B$ as a parallel beam,then the distance $d$ in $cm$ will be:
