Answer 2

Hey!

We can write it like this,

`(27(2)/(3))/(27(4)/(3))`
Let's convert them to improper fractions,

`=((83)/(3))/((85)/(3))`
Let's divide them, but to do that we have to take the reciprocal of the second fraction,

`=(83\cdot \:3)/(3\cdot \:85)`
Since our common factor is 3, we can cancel them out.

`=(83)/(85)`
That would be our final answer.
