When multiplying fractions, you multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. Here, $2x^2 \times 30 = 60x^2$ and $5 \times x^3 = 5x^3$, simplifying to $\frac{60x^2}{5x^3} = \frac{12}{x}$ after dividing both numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor and simplifying the x terms.
