Two electric dipoles of dipole moments $1.2 \times 10^{-30} \, C \cdot m$ and $2.4 \times 10^{-30} \, C \cdot m$ are placed in two different uniform electric fields of strengths $5 \times 10^{4} \, N \cdot C^{-1}$ and $15 \times 10^{4} \, N \cdot C^{-1}$ respectively. The ratio of maximum torque experienced by the electric dipoles will be $\frac{1}{x}$. The value of $x$ is $.....$
