Answer:


(12)/(5) or
2 (2)/(5\\)

Explanation:

You follow KCF (Keep Change Flip)

Keep
(2)/(5) the same

change the division sign to multiplication
(2)/(5) \\ ×
(1)/(6\\)

Flip
(1)/(6) so that the denominator is on top and the numerator is on the bottom like this
(6)/(1\\)

After doing those steps your new equation will look like this-
(2)/(5) ×
(6)/(1)

Multiplying


(2)/(5) ×
(6)/(1) Now all you have to do is multiply

1st- multiply 2x6

2nd- multiply 5x1


(2)/(5) ×
(6)/(1\\\\) =
(12)/(5)

So your answer is
(12)/(5\\) or
2 (2)/(5)

Hope my explanation helps you out!
