Correct Answer: In small numbers


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The idiom in ones and twos means in small numbers or groups. When someone does something in ones and twos, they are doing it in a gradual or limited manner, not all at once or in large quantities. In ones refers to doing something individually or in a single unit. And twos adds to the concept, suggesting a small number or group.

Therefore, the correct answer is, in small numbers.
