First, we can simplify each fraction:
start fraction 5 over 16 end fraction = start fraction 25 over 80 end fraction
start fraction 24 over 15 end fraction = start fraction 48 over 30 end fraction = start fraction 8 over 5 end fraction
Now we can multiply:
start fraction 25 over 80 end fraction * start fraction 8 over 5 end fraction
To multiply, we multiply the numerators and denominators separately:
(25 * 8) / (80 * 5) = 200 / 400 = start fraction 1 over 2 end fraction
Therefore, the answer is B. one-half.
