Given, two point masses of m and 4m are separated by distance'd' on line.
At third point mass 'm' is not placed at a point on the line. Therefore the gravitational force is considered to be zero at that point.
Therefore,
Consider the point P is at the distance from mass 'm' and at the distance from mass '4m'
Therefore, at point 'P' on the line where the net gravitational force is zero; is at the distance of the point from the mass m each is
