\large {n_{app}}\, = \,\left( {\frac{V}{{V - {V_s}}}} \right)n - - - - \left( 1 \right)

\large {n_{rec}}\, = \,\left( {\frac{V}{{V - {V_s}}}} \right)n - - - - \left( 2 \right)

\large \frac{{{n_{app}}}}{{{n_{rec}}}}\, = \,\left[ {\frac{{V + {V_s}}}{{V - {V_s}}}} \right]\, = \,\left[ {\frac{{350 + 50}}{{350 - 50}}} \right]\, = \,\frac{{400}}{{300}}\, = \,\frac{4}{3}
