let another root =b
product of roots, 2/3*b=4/3
so, b=4/3*2/3=2

Solution :-
As 2/3 is one root of the equation, let us apply it in the x:
3x^2+px+4=0
3(2/3)^2+(2/3)p+4=0
3(4/9)+(2/3)p+4=0
4/3+2p/3+4=0
16/3+2p/3=0
2p/3= -16/3
p= -16/3 \times× 3/2
p = -8
3x^2+px+4=0
Substitute p = -8
3x^2 - 8x + 4 = 0
3x^2 - 6x - 2x + 4 = 0
3x(x-2) -2(x-2)
(3x-2)=0 and x-2=0
3x = 2 and x = 2
x = 2/3 or x = 2
Hence, the other root of the quadratic equation is: x = 2
