A parallel plate capacitor has capacitance $C$. If it is equally filled with parallel layers of materials of dielectric constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ its capacity becomes $C_1$. The ratio of $C_1$ to $C$ is
  • A${K_1} + {K_2}$
  • B$\frac{{{K_1}{K_2}}}{{{K_1} - {K_2}}}$
  • C$\frac{{{K_1} + {K_2}}}{{{K_1}{K_2}}}$
  • D$\frac{{2{K_1}{K_2}}}{{{K_1} + {K_2}}}$
