To find the fraction of boys who had brown hair, we need to multiply the fraction of boys by the fraction of boys with brown hair.

First, let's find the fraction of boys in the fifth-grade class. We are given that the fifth-grade class was 3/5 boys. So, if we consider the whole class as 1, the fraction of boys would be 3/5.

Next, let's find the fraction of boys with brown hair. According to the information given, 4/6 of the boys had brown hair.

To find the fraction of boys and had brown hair, we multiply the fractions:

(3/5) * (4/6)

To simplify the multiplication, we first simplify the fractions by canceling any common factors between the numerators and denominators:

(3/5) * (2/3) = (3 * 2) / (5 * 3) = 6/15

The fraction of boys and had brown hair is 6/15.

However, we can further simplify this fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 3:

(6/3) / (15/3) = 2/5

Therefore, the fraction of boys who had brown hair is 2/5.
