Answer:

2/15

Explanation:

Given the expression:

[tex]-\frac{2}{5}\div(-3)[/tex]

First, change the division sign to times by taking the reciprocal of the number after the sign:

[tex]=-\frac{2}{5}\times-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Next, multiply the numerators and denominators:

[tex]\begin{gathered} =\frac{(-2)\times(-1)}{5\times3} \\ =\frac{2}{15} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The fraction is already in its lowest form as required.
