Answer;

-The force on Body A is less than the force on Body B

Step-by-step explanation;

According to Newton's second law of motion, a force upon an object causes it to accelerate according to the formula net force = mass x acceleration (F=ma).

Therefore; the acceleration of the object is directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass. Thus, if two equal bodies are accelerated, and the body A's acceleration is half that of body B's, then it means the force on Body A is less than the force on Body B.
