Base=4/3cm
Let the equal sides be x.
Perimeter=S1+S2+S3
62/15=x+x+4/3
62/15=2x+4/3
62/15-4/3=2x
(62-20)/15=2x
42/15/2=x
42/15×1/2=x
21/15=x
7/5=x
Thus,
Two equal sides = x = 7/5cm

Concept
An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two sides of equal length in geometry. It is sometimes stated as having exactly two equal-length sides, and other times as having at least two equal-length sides.
Given
An isosceles triangle has a 4/3 cm base and a 62/15 cm perimeter.
To find
The length of either side of the remaining equal sides.
Solution
By the property of isosceles triangle
Let x be the length of the two equal sides of the triangle.
then,
Perimeter = x+x+4/3
62/15 = 2x+4/3
2x = (62-20)/15
2x = 42/15
x = 21/15
x = 7/5
As a result, the remaining two sides are each 7/5 cm long.
