To solve this problem, first calculate the value inside the parentheses:
2 1/2 × 2 1/2 = 5/2 × 5/2 = 25/4
Next, multiply this result by 8/15:
(25/4) × (8/15) = (25×8) / (4×15) = 200 / 60 = 10/3
Finally, subtract 5/9 from the result:
10/3 - 5/9 = (30/9) - (5/9) = 25/9
Therefore, (2 1/2 × 2 1/2) × 8/15 - 5/9 = 25/9.
