so for AM=GM

$\frac{x1+x2+x3}{3}=\sqrt[3]{x1*x2*x3}$

now we can define range $0\leq(x1*x2*x3)\leq64$

so GM can fall in range of $0\leq\sqrt[3]{(x1*x2*x3)}\leq4$

also x1*x2*x3 $\in$ Integer

also $0\leq\frac{x1+x2+x3}{3}\leq4$

possible value of $\sqrt[3]{x1*x2*x3}$ can be (0,1,2,3,4) = range of $\frac{x1+x2+x3}{3}$

only triplets that satisfy both condition are (x1,x2,x3)={(0,0,0),(1,1,1),(2,2,2),(3,3,3),(4,4,4)}

now probability of AM=GM = $\frac{5}{5^{3}}$=$\frac{1}{5^{2}}$

 

Thus option A

One can verify

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
	int i,j,k,sum,mul;
	for(i=0;i<5;i++)
		for(j=0;j<5;j++)
			for(k=0;k<5;k++){
				sum=i+j+k;
				sum=sum*sum*sum;
				mul=27*i*j*k;
				if (sum==mul)
					printf("%d %d %d\n",i,j,k);
			}
	return 0;
}
