To evaluate x/y for x = 2/3 and y = 5/6, we need to divide x by y.
x/y = (2/3) / (5/6)
To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:
x/y = (2/3) * (6/5)
Simplifying the fraction:
x/y = (2 * 6) / (3 * 5) = 12/15 = 4/5
Therefore, the value of x/y is four-fifths.
