The electric field at a distance r from the charged particle is given by :

k is electrostatic constant

if r = 2 m, electric field is given by :

If r = 1 m, electric field is given by :

Dividing equation (1) and (2) we get :

So, at a point 1 m from the particle, the electric field is 4 times of the electric field at a point 2 m.
