\begin{array}{l} \frac{9}{16}=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{t}{T}} \\ \\ \frac{N}{N_{0}}=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{t}{2 T}} \\ \\ \left(\frac{N}{N_{0}}\right)^{2}=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{t / T} \\ \\ \text { or } \frac{{N}^2}{N_{0}^{2}}=\frac{9}{16} \text { or } \frac{N}{N_{0}}=\frac{3}{4} \end{array}

So, option 3 is correct.
