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.
