$A$ particle of mass $3m$ is projected from the ground at some angle with the horizontal. The horizontal range is $R$. At the highest point of its path,it breaks into two pieces of mass $m$ and $2m$. The smaller mass comes to rest,and the larger mass finally falls at a distance $x$ from the point of projection. The value of $x$ is:
