To determine which expressions represent a number greater than 1, we can evaluate each option:

A. \( \frac{2}{3} \times 5 = \frac{2 \times 5}{3} = \frac{10}{3} \approx 3.33 \) (greater than 1)

B. \( \frac{1}{3} \div \frac{2}{5} = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{5}{2} = \frac{5}{6} \approx 0.83 \) (less than 1)

C. \( \frac{5}{3} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{5 \times 1}{3 \times 8} = \frac{5}{24} \approx 0.208 \) (less than 1)

D. \( \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{2}{3} = \frac{3 \times 2}{4 \times 3} = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 \) (less than 1)

E. The expression is not provided, but based on the calculations of A, B, C, and D, we have identified one option that is greater than 1.

Final answer: Only A is greater than 1.

If E were provided, we would evaluate it accordingly. However, based on the current options, only A qualifies as a number greater than 1.
