Answer:


\large\boxed{(4)/(5)}

Explanation:

Find LCD:

LCM of 15, 5 and 3 is 15

15 = (15)(1)

15 = (5)(3)

15 = (3)(5)


(2)/(5)=(2\cdot3)/(5\cdot3)=(6)/(15)\\\\(2)/(3)=(2\cdot5)/(3\cdot5)=(10)/(15)

Therefore we have:


(4)/(15),\ (2)/(5),\ (8)/(15),\ (2)/(3)\to(4)/(15),\ (6)/(15),\ (8)/(15),\ (10)/(15)

Look at the numerators. The next numerator is created from the previous one by adding the number 2.

Therefore the next fraction is equal to


(10+2)/(15)=(12)/(15)=(12:3)/(15:3)=(4)/(5)
