In optics, the thin lens equation relates the focal length $f$ of a lens to the object distance $d_{o}$ and the image distance $d_{i}$ by the formula $\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d _{o}} + \frac{1}{d _{i}}$ . Which of the following correctly expresses $f$ in terms of $d_{o}$ and $d_{i}$ ?

A.

$f = d_{o} + d_{i}$

B.

$f = \frac{d _{o} + d _{i}}{d _{o} d _{i}}$

C.

$f = \frac{d _{o} d _{i}}{d _{o} + d _{i}}$

D.

$f = \frac{1}{d _{o} d _{i}}$
