A uniform disc of radius R has a circular portion of radius R/2 removed from it. The centre of the removed portion was initially at x = R/2. The removed piece is then placed externally with its centre at x = 3R/2, without overlapping the remaining disc. Taking the original disc centre as x = 0, the centre of mass of the complete system is at:
