A fancy bathroom scale is calibrated in Newtons. This scale is put on a ramp, which is at a $40^\circ$ angle to the horizontal. A box is then put on the scale and the box-scale system is then pushed up the ramp by a horizontal force $F$. The system slides up the ramp at a constant speed. If the bathroom scale reads $R$ and the coefficient of static friction between the system and the ramp is $0.40$, what is $\frac{F}{R}$? Round to the nearest thousandth.
