Consider the arrangement shown in the figure. The total energy stored is $U_1$ when the key $K$ is closed. Now,the key $K$ is opened,and two dielectric slabs of relative permittivity $\epsilon_r$ are introduced between the plates of the two capacitors. The slabs fit tightly between the plates. The total energy stored is now $U_2$. Then,the ratio $U_1/U_2$ is:
