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

$\frac{7}{10}=0.7$

Multiply $\frac{2}{3}$ times $\frac{3}{4}$ by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

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

Cancel out $3$ in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{2}{4}+\frac{1}{5}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{2}{4}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $2$.

$$\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{5}$$

Least common multiple of $2$ and $5$ is $10$. Convert $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{5}$ to fractions with denominator $10$.

$$\frac{5}{10}+\frac{2}{10}$$

Since $\frac{5}{10}$ and $\frac{2}{10}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{5+2}{10}$$

Add $5$ and $2$ to get $7$.

$$\frac{7}{10}$$

$\frac{7}{2 \cdot 5} = 0.7$
