Two strings $A$ and $B$ of lengths $L_A = 80 \text{ cm}$ and $L_B = x \text{ cm}$ respectively are used separately in a sonometer. The ratio of their densities $(d_A / d_B)$ is $0.81$. The diameter of $B$ is one-half that of $A$. If the strings have the same tension and fundamental frequency,the value of $x$ is:
