$A$ Carnot engine with efficiency $\eta$ operates between two heat reservoirs with temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$, where $T_1 > T_2$. If only $T_1$ is changed by $0.4 \%$, the change in efficiency is $\Delta \eta_1$, whereas if only $T_2$ is changed by $0.2 \%$, the efficiency is changed by $\Delta \eta_2$. The ratio $\frac{\Delta \eta_1}{\Delta \eta_2}$ is approximately,
