In an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment,a straight black line of length $L$ is drawn on the inside part of the objective lens. The eyepiece forms a real image of this line. The length of this image is $I$. The magnification of the telescope is

  • A
    $\frac{L}{I}$
  • B
    $\frac{L}{I} + 1$
  • C
    $\frac{L}{I} - 1$
  • D
    $\frac{L + I}{L - I}$
