The wavelength of radiation emitted is $\lambda_0$ when an electron jumps from the second excited state to the first excited state of a hydrogen atom. If the electron jumps from the third excited state to the second orbit of the hydrogen atom,the wavelength of the radiation emitted will be $\frac{20}{x} \lambda_0$. The value of $x$ is
