1/3 = 0.33
0.33333 ÷ 5 = 0.066666

0.066666 + 0.066666 = 0.133332

2/5 of 1/3 is 0.133332

which is the same as 2/15

Note***

to find the fraction form of 0.133332


(0.133332)/(1) = (133332)/(1000000)

simplify by dividing both 133332 and 1000000 by 33333


(133332)/(1000000) = (4)/(30) = (2)/(15)

The "of" part basically means to multiply. So 2/5 x 1/3 = 2/15 which is the answer.
