Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

It might make the problem easier to understand if we were to rewrite it as:

  2

 ----

   3

======

   4

  ----

     5

In this expression, we're dividing by a fraction, the fraction 4/5.  We can get the same result by inverting this divisor fraction, 4/5, and then multiplying 2/3 by 5/4:

 5       2

----- * -----

  4       3

This reduces to

 5       1

----- * ----- = 5/6

 2       3
