\text{Let the height of the living room ceiling is h feet.}\\
\\
\text{Given that the bedroom ceiling is 10 feet high and this height is }\frac{2}{3}\\
\text{as high as the living room ceiling.}\\
\\
\text{So the equation that represents this situation can be set as:}\\
\\
\frac{2}{3}\ \text{of the height of the living room = Height of ceiling of bedroom}

\Rightarrow \frac{2}{3}(h)=10\\
\\
\Rightarrow \frac{2h}{3}=10\\
\\
\text{now to solve it, first we multiply both sides by 3. so we get}\\
\\
2h=30\\
\\
\text{now divide both sides by 2 to get}\\
\\
h=15

Hence the height of the living room ceiling is: 15 feet
