optics, the resulting power of the lens...??

a thin lens , made of refractive index 1.5,has a front surface +11 d power and back surface -6d ..if this lens is submerged in a liquid of refractive index 1.6, the resulting power of the lens is...

a)-1 dioptre

b)+1 dioptre

c)-5 dioptre

d)+5 dioptre

pleasezzz answer ,,,and why please ..its emergency:frown:..
