The temperature of two outer surfaces of a composite slab, consisting of two materials having coefficients of thermal conductivity $K$ and $2 K$ and thickness $x$ and $4 x$, respectively are $T_2$ and $T_1\left(T_2>T_1\right)$. The rate of heat transfer through the slab, in a steady state is $\left(\frac{A\left(T_2-T_1\right) K}{x}\right) f$, with $f$ equal to
