The length of a potentimeter wire is 10c...

The length of a potentimeter wire is 10cm . A cell of emf E is balanced at a lenth `(10)/(3)` cm from the positive end of the wire .If the length of the wire is increased by 5 cm , at what distance (in cm ) from positive end will the same cell give a balance point ?
