Recall that a factor of an expression is a number or algebraic expression that divides the given expression evenly.

Notice that:

$\begin{gathered} ((2)/(5)ab)/((2)/(5))=ab, \\ ((2)/(5)ab)/(a)=(2)/(5)b, \\ ((2)/(5)ab)/(b)=(2)/(5)a. \end{gathered}$

Therefore:

$(2)/(5),a,\text{ and b}$

are factors of the given expression.
