To multiply 2/5 and 5/6, you need to multiply the numerators (2 x 5) and the denominators (5 x 6) separately:
2/5 x 5/6
= (2 x 5) / (5 x 6)
= 10/30
To simplify the fraction, you can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 10:
10 ÷ 10 / 30 ÷ 10
= 1/3
Therefore, the product of 2/5 and 5/6 in simplest form is 1/3.
MULTIPLY 2/5 TIMES 5/6 WRITE THE PRODUCT IN SIMPLEST FORM.
