Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Henry did 5/6 of his mathematics problems. And then he checks 2/3 of the problems. So we are meant to find what 2/3 of 5/6 is.

[tex]\frac{2}{3}* \frac{5}{6} = \frac{10}{18} = \frac{5}{9}[/tex]

The word "of" in mathematics is normally a good indicator of multiplication, especially where fractions, decimals and percentages are involved. So finding one fifth of 260 is done by multiplying one fifth by 260.
