let's firstly convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction.


\stackrel{mixed}{2(1)/(3)}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 3+1}{3}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{7}{3}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ 2(1)/(3)\cdot \cfrac{4}{5}\implies \cfrac{7}{3}\cdot \cfrac{4}{5}\implies \cfrac{28}{15}\implies 1(13)/(15)
