An electric current is passed through a circuit containing two wires of the same material,connected in parallel. If the lengths and radii of the wires are in the ratio of $4/3$ and $2/3$ respectively,then the ratio of the currents passing through the wires will be:

  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $1/3$
  • C
    $8/9$
  • D
    $2$
