-4pi/3 => 2pi + (-4pi/3)
-4pi/3=>6pi/3 + (-4pi/3)
-4pi/3=>2pi/3
Hope it helps :)

Answer:

The coterminal angle is
(2\pi)/(3)

Explanation:

In order to find a positive coterminal angle, we must have to add
2\pi to the angle:


2\pi + (-(4\pi)/(3))=2\pi -(4\pi)/(3)

Applying the rule for substraction of an integer and a fraction:


a-(b)/(c) = ((a)(c)-b)/(c)

In this case:


a=2\pi\\b=4\pi\\c=3

Therefore:


2\pi-(4\pi)/(3)=((2\pi)(3)-4\pi)/(3)=(6\pi-4\pi)/(3)=(2\pi)/(3)
