The product is more than 2/6.

Explanation:
2/6 simplifies to 1/3, and multiplying by 10/8 (which is greater than 1) increases the value. Specifically, (1/3) × (10/8) equals 10/24, which simplifies to 5/12. Since 5/12 is greater than 1/3 (or 4/12), the product is more than 2/6.

Beyond the Answer
To solve \( \frac{2}{6} \times \frac{10}{8} \), we simplify the fractions first. \( \frac{2}{6} \) simplifies to \( \frac{1}{3} \) and \( \frac{10}{8} \) simplifies to \( \frac{5}{4} \). Now, multiplying these gives us: \( \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{5}{4} = \frac{5}{12} \). To compare \( \frac{5}{12} \) with \( \frac{1}{3} \) (or \( \frac{4}{12} \) for easy comparison), we see that \( \frac{5}{12} \) is greater than \( \frac{4}{12} \). Therefore, the product is more than \( \frac{2}{6} \).
