In a metrebridge, when $R_{1}$ and $X$ are the resistances in left gap and right gap respectively, the null point is obtained at 40 cm from the left. Now, when the resistance $R_{2}$ is in left gap and $X$ in right gap, then the null point is obtained at 60 cm from the left. When the resistance in left gap is changed to $\left(R_{1}+R_{2}\right),$ the null point will be at
