Let a triangle be bounded by the lines $L _{1}: 2 x +5 y =10$; $L _{2}:-4 x +3 y =12$ and the line $L _{3}$, which passes through the point $P (2,3)$, intersect $L _{2}$ at $A$ and $L _{1}$ at $B$. If the point $P$ divides the line-segment $A B$, internally in the ratio $1: 3$, then the area of the triangle is equal to
