A concentrated vertical load of 3000 kN is applied on a horizontal ground surface. Points P and Q are at depths 1 m and 2 m below the ground, respectively, along the line of application of the load. Considering the ground to be a linearly elastic, isotropic, semi-infinite medium, the ratio of the increase in vertical stress at P to the increase in vertical stress at Q is ___________. (in integer)
