The resistance per centimeter of a meter bridge wire is $\mathrm{r}$, with $\mathrm{X}\  \Omega$ resistance in left gap. Balancing length from left end is at $40 \mathrm{~cm}$ with $25\  \Omega$ resistance in right gap. Now the wire is replaced by another wire of $2 \mathrm{r}$ resistance per centimeter. The new balancing length for same settings will be at
