$16\frac{2}{3}=h$

$\frac{2}{15}=\frac{h}{125}\longrightarrow$ multiply both sides by 125 $\frac{2}{15}\times125=\frac{h}{125}\times125\longrightarrow$ simplify $\frac{250}{15}=h\longrightarrow$ reduce $16\frac{10}{15}=h\longrightarrow$ reduce $16\frac{10\div5}{15\div5}=h\longrightarrow$ simplify $16\frac{2}{3}=h$
