\text{Given}\: \: P\left(B^{\prime}\right)>P\left(A^{\prime}\right)

\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow P(B)<P(A) \\ \\& \Rightarrow \quad P(A)=P\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right)+P(A \cap B) \end{aligned}

                                   \begin{aligned} & >P(B) \\ \\& =P\left(A^{\prime} \cap B\right)+P(A \cap B) \end{aligned}

\\\Rightarrow P\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right)>P\left(A^{\prime} \cap B\right)\\ \\\Rightarrow(A) \: \text{is false and so is} \: (B)
