$A$ solid sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is divided into two unequal parts. The first part has a mass of $\frac{7M}{8}$ and is converted into a uniform disc of radius $2R$. The second part is converted into a uniform solid sphere. Let $I_1$ be the moment of inertia of the disc about its axis and $I_2$ be the moment of inertia of the new sphere about its axis. The ratio of $I_1/I_2$ is given by
