If resistors 1 and 2 are connected to identical batteries, resistor 1 dissipates 3.0 times more power

Question:

If resistors 1 and 2 are connected to identical batteries, resistor 1 dissipates 3.0 times more power than resistor 2 . What is the ratio \(P_{1} / P_{2}\) of their power dissipations if the same current passes through each resistor?
