Answer:

Fraction-12/25 Decimal-0.48

Explanation:

To divide fractions, we have the use the term, Keep, Change, Flip.

In this case, the two fractions are 2/5 and 5/6.

First, we Keep the 2/5.

Now, we Change the division sign by a multiplication sign.

So it would look like 2/5x5/6.

Now, for the final step, we Flip the second fraction.

Now, the question would look something like this.

2/5x6/5.

Now, we multiply.

2x6=12, and 5x5=25.

The answer would be 12/25.

In decimal form, it would be 0.48.

Hope that helped! :D
