Answer : The amount of rice Tina use to make fried rice will be,
(2)/(5) pounds

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that:

Tina has the amount of rice =
(3)/(5) pounds

Amount of fraction she use to make fried rice =
(2)/(3)

Now we have to calculate the amount of rice will Tina use to make fried rice.

Amount of rice will Tina use to make fried rice =
(3)/(5)* (2)/(3) pounds

Amount of rice will Tina use to make fried rice =
(2)/(5) pounds

Thus, the amount of rice Tina use to make fried rice will be,
(2)/(5) pounds
