#10/27#

Explanation:

You are messing up on an important use of terms here, and I think you meant product instead of quotient. Quotient means dividing, while product means multiplying.

I did not edit the question, as this is a great way for other people to learn from their mistakes as well.

Since you wrote "5/9 times 2/3", I will assume that you want to multiply the two fractions. See the solution process below:

#5/9 * 2/3#

#(5*2)/(9*3)#

#10/27#

This is our answer, since it is in simplest form and cannot be reduced or simplified any further in both numerator and denominator (top and bottom of the fraction).

I hope that helps!
