Answer 1

To multiply fractions, you simply multiply the numerators (top numbers) and denominators (bottom numbers) together. Then, you simplify the resulting fraction, if necessary.

For the given problem, we have:

5/15 x 2

Multiplying the numerators and denominators:

(5 x 2) / (15)

10 / 15

This fraction can be simplified further by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 5:

10 ÷ 5 / 15 ÷ 5

2 / 3

So, the answer is 2/3.
