If x and y are natural numbers such that $$(\frac{1}{x})^\frac{1}{y}=0.\overline{3}$$, then the value of XY is
$$0.\overline{3}$$ can be written asΒ $$\frac{1}{3}$$. So the possible values of x, y will be as follows.
3,1Β $$\Rightarrow\ (\frac{1}{x})^{\frac{1}{y}}=\frac{1}{3}$$. Here, xy=3.
9,2Β $$\Rightarrow\ (\frac{1}{x})^{\frac{1}{y}}=\left(\frac{1}{9}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{3}$$.Β Here, xy=18.
27,3$$\Rightarrow\ (\frac{1}{x})^{\frac{1}{y}}=\left(\frac{1}{27}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{1}{3}$$. Here, xy=81.
So, option B is correct.
