$A$ compound is formed by two elements $A$ and $B$. The element $B$ forms a cubic close-packed $(CCP)$ structure and atoms of $A$ occupy $\frac{1}{3}$ of the tetrahedral voids. If the formula of the compound is $A_x B_y$,then the value of $x+y$ is:

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $3$
