To evaluate the expression \( \frac{2}{3} (-6 + 4) \), we first need to simplify the part inside the parentheses:
\[
-6 + 4 = -2
\]
Now the expression becomes:
\[
\frac{2}{3} (-2)
\]
Next, we multiply:
\[
\frac{2}{3} \times -2 = \frac{2 \times -2}{3} = \frac{-4}{3}
\]
Thus, the value of the expression is:
\[
\boxed{-\frac{4}{3}}
\]
So the correct answer is **D. -4/3**.
\[
-6 + 4 = -2
