$$\frac{2}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{3}{5}=$$

$\frac{31}{60}\approx 0.516666667$

Multiply $\frac{1}{4}$ times $\frac{3}{5}$ by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$$\frac{2}{3}-\frac{1\times 3}{4\times 5}$$

Do the multiplications in the fraction $\frac{1\times 3}{4\times 5}$.

$$\frac{2}{3}-\frac{3}{20}$$

Least common multiple of $3$ and $20$ is $60$. Convert $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{3}{20}$ to fractions with denominator $60$.

$$\frac{40}{60}-\frac{9}{60}$$

Since $\frac{40}{60}$ and $\frac{9}{60}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{40-9}{60}$$

Subtract $9$ from $40$ to get $31$.

$$\frac{31}{60}$$

$\frac{31}{2 ^ {2} \cdot 3 \cdot 5} = 0.5166666666666667$
