For this case we have the following expression:

(5x^2)/(y^3) * (4y^2)/(10x)
Rewriting the expression we have:

(20x^2y^2)/(10xy^3)
Then, simplifying and by properties of exponents we have:

{2x^(2-1)y^(2-3)} {2xy^(-1)}
Rewriting we have::

(2x)/(y)
Answer:
The simplified expression is given by:

(2x)/(y)
