Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:


(2)/(5)x=(6)/(15)

Step 1: Multiply both sides of the equation by the lowest common multiple of 5 and 15.


\begin{gathered} (2x)/(5)*15=(6)/(15)*15 \\ 6x=6 \end{gathered}

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by 6.


\begin{gathered} (6x)/(6)=(6)/(6) \\ x=1 \end{gathered}

The solution to the equation is x=1.
