Two rods, one made of aluminium and the other made of steel, having initial lengths $l_1$  and $l_2$ respectively are connected together to form a single rod of length $(l_1 + l_2)$. The coefficients of linear expansion for aluminium and steel of $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$ respectively. If the length of each rod increases by the same amount when  their temperature is raised by $t^oC$, then the ratio $l_1/(l_1 + l_2)$ :-
