I doubt that an algebraic solution is possible, so use a calculator.

(1) To find the value of m, graph x^(1/x) and 2^(1/4) and find the x value of their point of intersection.

(2) To find the value of n, graph x^(1/x) and 3^(1/9) and find the x value of their point of intersection.

(3) To find the value of mn, multiply the two x values from (1) and (2).
