A sample of radioactive material $A$, that has an activity of $10\, mCi\, (1\, Ci = 3.7 \times 10^{10}\, decays/s)$, has twice the number of nuclei as another sample of different radioactive material $B$ which has an activity of $20\, mCi$. The correct choices for half-lives of $A$ and $B$ would then be respectively
