ANSWER

Step-by-step explanation

After we rewrite this as a multiplication we have to do the multiplication. The result is a fraction whose numerator is the product of the numerators of the fractions and the denominator is the product of the denominators,


(2)/(7)*(5)/(2)=(2*5)/(7*2)=(10)/(14)

Then, the GCF between the numerator and denominator is 2, so we have to divide both by 2,


(10/2)/(14/2)=(5)/(7)

Hence, the answer is 5/7
