Calculation:

\(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{5} \div\left[\left\{2 \frac{1}{5}-2\right\} \times 5\right]-\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{3}{5}\)

⇒ \(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{5} \div\left[\left\{\frac{11}{5}-2\right\} \times 5\right]-\frac{2}{5}\)

⇒ \(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{5} \div\left[\left\{\frac{1}{5}\right\} \times 5\right]-\frac{2}{5}\)

⇒ \(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{5} \div1-\frac{2}{5}\)

⇒ \(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{5}-\frac{2}{5}\)

⇒ \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Option 2 is the correct answer.
