For an equilateral prism,it is observed that when a ray strikes grazingly at one face,it emerges grazingly at the other. Its refractive index will be

Three thin prisms are combined as shown in the figure. The refractive indices of the crown glass for red,yellow,and violet rays are ${\mu _r}, {\mu _y}$ and ${\mu _v}$ respectively,and those for the flint glass are ${\mu _r}', {\mu _y}'$ and ${\mu _v}'$ respectively. If there is no net deviation in the yellow ray,then the ratio $A'/A$ will be:
