Electric field E due to a dipole at a distance r far away from its position is given as  
 
E = K × [ ( 2 p ) / r3 ]
 
where K = 1/(4πεo ) is Coulomb's constant and p is dipole moment .
 
Hence electric field of dipole at a far away distance is directly proportional to dipole moment
and  inversely proportional to cube of distance .
 
As shown in figure, if A is a point which is at a distance r from a dipole of moment P and
at a distance (15-r) from another dipole of moment 8P in opposite direction ,
 
Then to get zero electric field at A , we have the condition
 
begin mathsize 14px style 1 over r cubed space minus space 8 over open parentheses 15 minus r close parentheses cubed space equals space 0 space end style
 
Above expression is simplified as ,  (15 - r ) = 2r   or     r = 5 cm
