The suggested answer is A, D.
Initially, both nums and vals point to the same list [1, 2, 3]. When using 'del vals[1:2]', we remove the second element from vals, but since nums and vals refer to the same list, it also affects nums. Now, both nums and vals will be [1, 3]. Hence, nums is longer than vals is incorrect, as they are of the same length. nums and vals are of the same length is incorrect because they both have the same elements after deletion. vals is longer than nums is incorrect because both lists are the same length. The correct statements are nums is longer than vals (A) and nums and vals refer to the same list (D).
