Charges 1 and 2 are repelled by the negatively charged plate of the system 

Hence 1 and 2 are negatively charged.

Similarly, 3 being repelled by positive plate is positively charged.

(Charge to mass ratio: Charge per unit mass)

Since, 3 is deflected the most, it has the highest charge to mass ratio.
