x1 be the displacement from spring attached to centre of pulley and x2 be the displacement from spring 2.  Net displacement of mass m will be 2x1+x2.
Now, T=kx2----(1)
and 2T=kx1. ----(2)
Now, from 1 and 2,
x1=2x2----(3)
Now from work energy conservation theorem,
(1/2)k(x1)+(1/2)k(x2)2= mg(2x1+ x2)
Using eq.(3),
x2=2mg/k
x1= 4mg/k
Net displacement=2x1+x2=8mg/k +2mg/k=10mg/k
On comparing we get x= 5
