A prism of a certain angle deviates the red and blue rays by 8° and 12° respectively. Another prism of the same angle deviates the red and blue rays by 10° and 14° respectively. The prisms are small angled and made of different materials. The dispersive powers of the materials of the prisms are in the ratio
