For a second order reaction,

dA/dt = - k A2

This implies

-dA/A2=k dt

Integrating, we get

1/A-1/Af=k t

1/A-1/(A/2) = k t1/2
-1/A = k t1/2

so

1/A-1/(2A/3) = k t1/2
-1/2A = k t2/3

From which you get option 4

" 1/A-1/(2A/3) = k t1/2 " ---> Sir here u mean t 2/3 ??

If yes then ya I got ur method
