In an interference experiment,the path difference between two interfering waves at a point $A$ on the screen is $\lambda/3$,where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of these waves,and at another point $B$ the path difference is $\lambda/6$. The ratio of intensities at points $A$ and $B$ is . . . . . . .

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: The phase difference of two light waves changes if they travel through different media having the same thickness,but different indices of refraction.
Reason $R$: The wavelengths of waves are different in different media.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
