A parallel plate capacitor having plates of area $S$ and plate separation $d$, has capacitance $C _1$ in air. When two dielectrics of different relative permittivities $\left(\varepsilon_1=2\right.$ and $\left.\varepsilon_2=4\right)$ are introduced between the two plates as shown in the figure, the capacitance becomes $C _2$. The ratio $\frac{ C _2}{ C _1}$ is
