The correct answer is: 75 cm

Refer above diagram,

For lens Au=-30 cmfB=+10 cm

The using lens formula, the image distance for lens A is 

1vA-1uA=1fA

1vA-1-30=1+10

The image distance from lens Ais given by

vA=15 cm

For lens Bu=(vA-5)=(15-5)=10 cm and fB=-10 cm

Now image distance for lens B is 

1vB-1+10=1-10vB=

Similarly, for lens C

u= and fC=30 cm

1vc-1=130vc=30 cm

Hence, total distance between object & image is 

30+45=75 cm
