A magnifying glass is a convex lens .If we place the object between focus F and C center of lens i.e. u<f .From lens formula ,
v=uf/u+f
since u<f , v will be negative and v>f i.e. image will be formed beyond and on the same side of lens .
From m=v(ive,v>u)/u(ive)>11 and +ive , which means virtual ,magnified and erect image .
