In order to get the location of zero field, we need to find the location far away from higher magnitude charge.
Hence Point P is chosen left of the location of -16 μC.
Let point P is left of -16μC and at a distance r cm from -16μC.
Since at P field due to both charges cancel each other, we have
by solving for r, we get r = 133 cm
