1) Find the width of the window. To find the fraction of a number (we have 3/5 of 2), you need to multiply the given number (we have 2) by this fraction (we have 3/5).

2 * 3/5 = 6/5 (m).

2) Find the area of the window. The window is rectangular. The area of a rectangle is equal to the product of its length and width. S = ab.

2 * 6/5 = 12/5 = 2.4 (m ^ 2).

Answer. 2.4 m ^ 2.
