let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then multiply.


\bf \stackrel{mixed}{4(3)/(5)}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 5+3}{5}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{23}{5}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{23}{5}\cdot \cfrac{2}{3}\implies \cfrac{23\cdot 2}{5\cdot 3}\implies \cfrac{46}{15}\implies 3(1)/(15)
