Answer:


(2)/(5)j^(2)

Explanation:

  • We have a number represented by the letter
    j.
  • The question asks for two fifths
    ((2)/(5) ) of the square of this number.
  1. To square a number means to multiply a number by itself. The result will be the number raised to the power of 2. Applying this to
    j, we get
    j*j
    =j^2
  2. Two fifths of this term (
    j^2) is 
    (2)/(5)j^(2). This is our final answer.
  • Hope this helps!
