Solution:

we are given that

Camilla’s class played soccer for 2/3 hour.

She played for 3/5 of the game.

we have been asked to find

How much time did Camilla play?

Here we are given total time of play for the whole class and camilla played part of that time so we will just multiply the total play time with the fraction of time that camilla played. That will give the actual play time of camilla.

So camila played for
=(2)/(3)*(3)/(5) =(6)/(15)Hr

Hence camilla played for 6/15 Hr.

Hence the correct option ois B.
