1. Problem Description

We are asked to evaluate the expression (15+23):425(\frac{1}{5} + \frac{2}{3}) : \sqrt{\frac{4}{25}}.

2. Solution Steps

First, we add the fractions inside the parenthesis. The least common denominator of 55 and 33 is 1515. Thus, we have
\frac{1}{5} + \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1 \times 3}{5 \times 3} + \frac{2 \times 5}{3 \times 5} = \frac{3}{15} + \frac{10}{15} = \frac{3+10}{15} = \frac{13}{15}.
Next, we evaluate the square root:
\sqrt{\frac{4}{25}} = \frac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{25}} = \frac{2}{5}.
Now, we divide the result of the sum by the result of the square root:
\frac{13}{15} : \frac{2}{5} = \frac{13}{15} \div \frac{2}{5} = \frac{13}{15} \times \frac{5}{2} = \frac{13 \times 5}{15 \times 2} = \frac{13 \times 5}{3 \times 5 \times 2} = \frac{13}{3 \times 2} = \frac{13}{6}.

3. Final Answer

136\frac{13}{6}
