Answer
2

Explanation

For case (a),

$${K_{eq}} = {{2K} \over 3}$$

For case (b),

$${K_{eq}} = 3K$$

$$\because$$ $$T = 2\pi \sqrt {{m \over K}} $$

$$\therefore$$ $${{{T_a}} \over {{T_b}}} = \sqrt {{{{K_b}} \over {{K_a}}}} $$

$${3 \over {{T_b}}} = \sqrt {{{3K \times 3} \over {2K}}} = {3 \over {\sqrt 2 }}$$

$${T_b} = \sqrt 2 $$

$$x = 2$$
