Answer:

`(5)/(2)\left(k-(4)/(5)\right)`

Explanation:

When you factor out 5/2, each term gets divided by 5/2. Equivalently, each term is multiplied by 2/5.

`(5)/(2)k-2=(5)/(2)\cdot(2)/(5)\left((5)/(2)k-2\right)=(5)/(2)\left((2)/(5)\cdot(5)/(2)k-(2)/(5)\cdot2\right)\\\\ =\boxed{(5)/(2)\left(k-(4)/(5)\right)}`
