A heavy box is to be dragged along a rough horizontal floor. To do so, the person A pushes it at an angle 30° from the horizontal and requires a minimum force $$F_A$$, while the person B pulls the box at an angle 60° from the horizontal and needs minimum force $$F_B$$. If the coefficient of friction between the box and the floor is $$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{5}$$, the ratio $$\frac{F_A}{F_B}$$ is:
