The correct answer is:
Gauss's law states that the net flux of an electric field in a closed surface is directly proportional to the enclosed electric charge. Therefore,
Since the smaller cube is inside the bigger cube, so total charge contained by the bigger cube will be .
Therefore, required ratio will be,
.
