Solve the operation:

[tex]\[
\left( \frac{6}{5} - \frac{1}{3} \right) \cdot \frac{2}{3}
\][/tex]

Sagot :

Let's solve the expression step by step. The expression we need to evaluate is:

[tex]\[ \left(\frac{6}{5} - \frac{1}{3}\right) \cdot \frac{2}{3} \][/tex]

### Step 1: Evaluate the subtraction within the parentheses
First, we need to find a common denominator to subtract [tex]\(\frac{1}{3}\)[/tex] from [tex]\(\frac{6}{5}\)[/tex]. The least common denominator (LCD) of 5 and 3 is 15. So, we rewrite the fractions with a denominator of 15:

[tex]\[ \frac{6}{5} = \frac{6 \times 3}{5 \times 3} = \frac{18}{15} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \times 5}{3 \times 5} = \frac{5}{15} \][/tex]

Now we perform the subtraction:

[tex]\[ \frac{18}{15} - \frac{5}{15} = \frac{18 - 5}{15} = \frac{13}{15} \][/tex]

The result of the subtraction is [tex]\(\frac{13}{15}\)[/tex].

### Step 2: Multiply the result by [tex]\(\frac{2}{3}\)[/tex]
Next, we need to multiply this result by [tex]\(\frac{2}{3}\)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ \left(\frac{13}{15}\right) \cdot \frac{2}{3} = \frac{13 \cdot 2}{15 \cdot 3} = \frac{26}{45} \][/tex]

So, the result of the expression is [tex]\(\frac{26}{45}\)[/tex].

### Summary of Numerical Values
Let's summarize the numerical values:

1. [tex]\(\frac{6}{5} = 1.2\)[/tex]
2. [tex]\(\frac{1}{3} \approx 0.3333333333333333\)[/tex]
3. [tex]\(\frac{2}{3} \approx 0.6666666666666666\)[/tex]
4. [tex]\(\frac{13}{15} \approx 0.8666666666666667\)[/tex]
5. [tex]\(\frac{26}{45} \approx 0.5777777777777777\)[/tex]

Thus, the final evaluated result of the expression is:

[tex]\[ \left(\frac{6}{5} - \frac{1}{3}\right) \cdot \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.5777777777777777 \][/tex]

Therefore, the detailed numerical result of the operation is approximately [tex]\(0.5777777777777777\)[/tex].
