The table made is correct, so we conclude that 3/4 is equivalent of 75%. However, we must apply this percentage, or fraction, to the whole number we want to take the percentage of, that is, 36.

The number 27 is the actuall result of taking this percentage.

So, the correct expression would be:


((3)/(4))(36)

Thus, we need to change the 27 to 36, first alternative.
