Let's analyze the image you've uploaded.

The question asks which two of the shapes are shaded to represent $\frac{2}{5}$ of the total area. To solve this, we need to examine the shaded portions in each shape and compare them to the total number of sections in each shape.

1. Shape A: This shape is divided into 4 sections. Two of them are shaded, so $\frac{2}{4}$, or 50%, of the shape is shaded.
2. Shape B: This shape is divided into 8 sections, and 3 of them are shaded, so $\frac{3}{8}$, or 37.5%, of the shape is shaded.
3. Shape C: This shape is divided into 5 sections, and 2 of them are shaded, so $\frac{2}{5}$, or 40%, of the shape is shaded.
4. Shape D: This shape is divided into 4 sections, and 2 of them are shaded, so $\frac{2}{4}$, or 50%, of the shape is shaded.
5. Shape E: This shape is divided into 3 sections, and 1 of them is shaded, so $\frac{1}{3}$, or about 33.33%, of the shape is shaded.
6. Shape F: This shape is divided into 4 sections, and 2 of them are shaded, so $\frac{2}{4}$, or 50%, of the shape is shaded.

Based on this, Shape C is the only shape where $\frac{2}{5}$ is shaded. However, I’ll need to recheck which other shape could also fit. From the fractions calculated, I see that no other shape directly matches the shading of $\frac{2}{5}$, so C is the likely answer.
