Lily's basketball team won 4/5 of their games. Lily scored points 2/3 of the games her team won. In waht fraction of her team's winning games did Lily score points?

Answer: =D.
(5)/(6)

Solution:


( 2 )/( 3 ) / ( 4 )/( 5 ) =


(2)/(3)* \left((5)/(4)\right)


(2* 5)/(3* 4)


(10)/(12)

=
(5)/(6)

I reduced the fraction
(10)/(12) into the Lowest terms by doing extracting and cancelling out the
2

=
(5)/(6)

So the answer is letter D.
(5)/(6)
