Solution

\[(b) 3\]
\[ 9^\frac{1}{3} \times 9^\frac{1}{9} \times 9^\frac{1}{27} \times . . . \infty \]
\[ = 9^\left( \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{27} + . . . \infty \right) \]
\[\text{ Here, it is a G . P . with } a = \frac{1}{3}\text{ and } r = \frac{1}{3} . \]
\[ \therefore 9^\left( \frac{\frac{1}{3}}{1 - \frac{1}{3}} \right) \]
\[ = 9^\left( \frac{1}{2} \right) = 3\]
