Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write out the product.  Then, reduce as far as possible:

5       24         5(1)(4)(6)

----- * ------- = ---------------   Here, the 5s cancel, and so we get:

16       15         5(3)(4)(4)


4(6)

----------

3(4)(4)

Here, the 4 in the numerator cancels out one of the 4s in the denominator:


 6

------

12


and this last result reduces to 1/2.
