Answer:

Option B is correct


x^{(5)/(3)} \cdot y^{(1)/(3)}

Explanation:

Using the radical rule:


(ab)^{(1)/(m) = a^{(1)/(m)} \cdot b^{(1)/(m)}

Given the expression:


\sqrt[3]{x^5y}

we can write this as:


(x^5y)^{(1)/(3)}

Apply the radical rules:


x^{(5)/(3)} \cdot y^{(1)/(3)}

Therefore, the expression which is equivalent to
\sqrt[3]{x^5y} is,
x^{(5)/(3)} \cdot y^{(1)/(3)}
