Correct Answer: Sacrifice by $A \frac{1}{10} ;$ Sacrifice by $B \frac{1}{10}$


Solution : Answer = Gain by $A \frac{1}{10} ;$ Gain by $B \frac{1}{10}$

Sacrificing ratio = old ratio - new ratio

A = 1/2 -3/5 = 5-6/10 = -1/10 (gain)

B = 1/2 - 2/5 = 5-4/10 = 1/10 (sacrifice)
​​​​​​​Hence, the correct option is 1.
