What you need to know is that the force is
F=ma
The force is the product of mass and acceleration
this means that the acceleration is
a=F/m
a) The force is halved?
this means that f will be
now:
a=
So the accelaration will also he halved (it's the original acceleratation divided by 2)
b) The object's mass is halved?
a=
=a=
which is the original acceleration times two!! so it will double
c) The force and the object's mass are both halved?
now we have
a=
=a=
=a=
so they will cancel each other out and the acceleration will stay the same!
