$\gamma_{A}$ is the specific heat ratio of a monoatomic gas $A$ having $3$ translational degrees of freedom. $\gamma_{B}$ is the specific heat ratio of a polyatomic gas $B$ having $3$ translational,$3$ rotational degrees of freedom,and $1$ vibrational mode. If $\frac{\gamma_{A}}{\gamma_{B}} = (1 + \frac{1}{n})$,then the value of $n$ is . . . . . . .
