Solution

The correct option is C
3 m

Objects placed in front of plane mirrors will have a corresponding image located behind the mirror. The distance from the image to the mirror is always identical to the distance from the object to the mirror. So if a person stands 3 meters in front of the mirror, then the image will be located an identical 3 meters behind the mirror.
