Evaluate \(5\frac{2}{5}\times \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^2\div\left(1\frac{1}{2}\right)^{-1}\)

  • A. \(\frac{8}{25}\)
  • B. \(\frac{12}{25}\)
  • C. \(3\frac{3}{5}\)
  • D. \(4\frac{1}{8}\)

Correct Answer: C. \(3\frac{3}{5}\)

Explanation

\(5\frac{2}{5}\times \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^2 ÷ \left(1\frac{1}{2}\right)^{-1}\\

\frac{27}{5}\times \frac{4}{9} \times \frac{3}{2}=3\frac{3}{5}
