Solution

Dear Student ,
Hence the object and the image are on the same side of the mirror .The image is at a distance of 48 cm and the object is at a distance of 12 cm .Hence the difference between them is 48 - 12 = 36 cm .

So this is how the image and the object is at a distance of 36 cm .
Regards
