The correct answer is: $\frac{4}{9}$

Explanation

Multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators. Then simplify if possible.

Steps:

  1. Multiply numerators: $$2 \times 2 = 4$$
  2. Multiply denominators: $$3 \times 3 = 9$$
  3. Combine into a fraction and simplify if needed: $$\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{2}{3}=\frac{4}{9}$$

Therefore, $ \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{2}{3} = \frac{4}{9} $. (This fraction is already in simplest form because $\gcd(4,9)=1$.)
