answer is 24.

firsty remember OF= MULTIPLY

NOW we can calculate this easily

here the equation is given

2/5×60. u can solve this in given ways below….…..

1……….

u can simply divided 60 by 5. which is equal to 12. and now the equation remain 2×12 . & it's equal to 24. which is our answer.

2……….

u can write 2/5 in decimals by dividing this . so 2/5 is equal to 0.4

and now u r left with 0.4×60

so after multiplying it comes 24.0

and that is equal to 24. (because after decimal zeros has no value)

3……….

and u also can multiply 2 by 60 . it occurs 120 then devide it by 5 . the answer comes 24.
