The space between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor of capacitance C (without any dielectric) is now filled with three dielectric slabs of dielectric constants \(K _1=2, K_2=3\), and \(K _3=5\) (as shown in the figure). If new capacitance is \(\frac{ n }{3} C\) then the value of \(n\) is ___________.
