Answer:

[tex]\frac{4}{15} \\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

number of the students like brussels sprouts but dislike lima beans = number of these students who dislike lima beans - number of students who dislike lima beans and also dislike brussels sprouts

[tex]\frac{2}{3}-\frac{3}{5}* \frac{2}{3} = \frac{2}{3}-\frac{6}{15}=\frac{10}{15}-\frac{6}{15}=\frac{4}{15}\\[/tex]
