A chain is placed on a rough table, partially hanging, as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the chain and the table is `mu` = 0.4. If the maximum possible length of the hanging part is x and the length of the chain is L, then what is the value of `(L)/(x)`?

` (muL)/(1+mu)`

`(muL)/(1-mu)`

` ((1-mu)L)/(1+mu)`

`muL`
