The correct answer is: decrease to one-half the original value
The resonant frequency
$$
v_{0}=\frac{1}{2 \pi \sqrt{L C}} \Rightarrow v_{0} \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{L C}}
$$
If conductance and capacitance both are doubled, then
$$
v_{0}=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{L C}\right)
$$
So, the resonant frequency will decrease to one-half of the original value.
