A solid sphere of mas M and radius R is divided into two unequal parts. The smaller part having mass M/8 is converted into a sphere of radius r and the larger part is converted into a circular disc of thickness 
and radius 
. If 
is moment of inertia of a sphere having radius r about an axis through its centre and 
is the moment of inertia of a disc about its diameter, the ratio of their moment of inertia 
.
