Answer:

5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

"of" means times so so so often. It is not a hard math rule/definition. But more like a soft English-Math translation.

So, "2/5 of what"

means 2/5x (but make sure the 2/5 is a fraction beside the x, NOT the x on the bottom with the 5)

"is" means equals.

2/5x = 2/3

Multiply both sides by 5/2.

5/2 • 2/5x = 2/3•5/2

x = 2/3 • 5/2

x = 5/3

You get 5/3 either by "cancelling" the 2's OR by

fraction multiplication where you times top×top and bottom×bottom and simplify.

x = 10/6

x = 5/3

2/5 of 5/3 is 2/3.

The "what" in the question is 5/3.

The answer is 4/15

2/5 * 2/3 = 2 · 2/5 · 3 = 4/15

Multiply the numerators and denominators together. Keep the result fraction to the smallest possible denominator GCD(4, 15) = 1. It cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling in the following intermediate step.

In other words, two fifths times two thirds equals four fifteenths.
