1. The problem is to simplify the expression $\sqrt[3]{\frac{40}{27}}$.
2. Recall the property of cube roots: $\sqrt[3]{\frac{a}{b}} = \frac{\sqrt[3]{a}}{\sqrt[3]{b}}$.
3. Apply this property to the expression:
$$\sqrt[3]{\frac{40}{27}} = \frac{\sqrt[3]{40}}{\sqrt[3]{27}}$$
4. Simplify the denominator since $27 = 3^3$:
$$\frac{\sqrt[3]{40}}{\sqrt[3]{3^3}} = \frac{\sqrt[3]{40}}{3}$$
5. Factor 40 to simplify the cube root if possible:
$$40 = 8 \times 5 = 2^3 \times 5$$
6. Use the property $\sqrt[3]{a \times b} = \sqrt[3]{a} \times \sqrt[3]{b}$:
$$\frac{\sqrt[3]{2^3 \times 5}}{3} = \frac{\sqrt[3]{2^3} \times \sqrt[3]{5}}{3}$$
7. Simplify $\sqrt[3]{2^3} = 2$:
$$\frac{2 \times \sqrt[3]{5}}{3} = \frac{2\sqrt[3]{5}}{3}$$
Final answer:
$$\boxed{\frac{2\sqrt[3]{5}}{3}}$$
