Answer

$16y^2z^3-\frac{8}{35}yz^4.$

Work Step by Step

By multiplying each term of the polynomial by the factor $\frac{4}{7} y z^{3}$, and then adding the products, we have $$ \frac{4}{7} y z^{3}\left(28 y-\frac{2}{5} z\right)=\frac{4}{7} y z^{3}\left(28 y\right)+\frac{4}{7} y z^{3}\left(-\frac{2}{5} z\right)\\ =16y^2z^3-\frac{8}{35}yz^4. $$
