At the very least, even if the lens isn't thin enough to utilize the thin lens criterion, you will be able to calculate a magnification, by dividing the image's distance to the lens into the cross' distance to the lens (unless you used the height method I gave you first). After you have the magnification, you can use the relationship to calculate the focal length by the relationship: Magnification = (focal length)/(focal length - cross' distance from the lens). You have 1 equation and 1 unknown now. I am curious as to what you measure the focal length to be with each method. If you get different results, the lens was likely too thick to use the thin lens equation, however, you will still be able to calculate the focal length no matter what, and can therefore calculate the power by dividing that into 1 and multiplying it by 100.
