Answer: 2/3ft or C

Step-by-step explanation: Solve for b in the area of a triangle equation, A=1/2bh. Multiply 1/2 by 2 on both sides to cancel it: A(2)=bh. Divide both sides by h:
(A(2))/(h)=b

A = 2/5

h = 6/5

b = ?

Next, we can plug the numbers into this equation:
(2/5(2))/(6/5)=b

Multiply 2 and 2/5: 4/5 / 6/5

Take the reciprocal of 6/5: 4/5 x 5/6 =
(20)/(30)


(20)/(30) รท
(10)/(10) =
(2)/(3)
