A Keplerian telescope with magnification...

A Keplerian telescope with magnification `T = 15` was submerged into water which filled up the inside of the telescope. To make the system work as a telescope again within the former dimensions, the objective was replaced. What has the magnification of the telescope become equal to ? the refractive index of the glass of which the ocular is made is equal to `n = 1.50`.

Sumati wanted to see the stars of the night sky. She knows that she needs a telescope to see those distant stars. She finds out that the telescopes, which are made of lenses, are called refracting telescopes and the ones which are made of mirrors are called reflecting telescopes. So she decided to make a refracting telescope. She bought two lenses, L_(1) and L_(2) . out of which L_(1) was bigger and L_(2) was smaller. The larger lens gathers and bends the light, while the smaller lens magnifies the image. Big, thick lenses are more powerful. So to see far away, she needed a big powerful lens. Unfortunately, she realized that a big lens is very heavy. Heavy lenses are hard to make and difficult to hold in the right place. Also since the light is passing through the lens, the surface of the lens has to be extremely smooth. Any flaws in the lens will change the image. It would be like looking through a dirty window. Sumati did some preliminary experiment with the lenses and found out that the magnification of the eyepiece (L_(2)) is 3. If in her experiment with L_(2) she found an image at 24 cm from the lens, at what distance did she put the object?
