Answer: 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can view that as what do we multiply 3 by to get 2 2/5 and call that value x

3x = 2 2/5

x = (2 2/5)/3

Let's turn 2 2/5 into an improper fraction... 2 2/5 = 12/5

So we have

x = (12/5)/3 = (12/5)(1/3) = 4/5

Thus 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3

Verify:  3(4/5) = 12/5 = 2 2/5
