The given signal is
\displaystyle x(n) =\sin \left((2n)/(3)\right).

To compute the fundamental frequency, we need to find the smallest positive value of
\displaystyle n for which the sinusoidal function repeats itself. In other words, we are looking for the period of the function.

Since the argument of the sine function is
\displaystyle (2n)/(3), one complete cycle of the function occurs when
\displaystyle (2n)/(3) increases by
\displaystyle 2\pi. So, we can set up the equation:


\displaystyle (2n)/(3) =2\pi

Solving for
\displaystyle n, we have:


\displaystyle n =(3( 2\pi ))/(2) =3\pi

Therefore, the period of the function
\displaystyle x(n) is
\displaystyle 3\pi. The fundamental frequency is the reciprocal of the period, so:


\displaystyle \text{{Fundamental frequency}}=(1)/(3\pi )

Hence, the fundamental frequency is
\displaystyle (1)/(3\pi ).
