Solution

To express the result of the given subtraction as a ratio, we need to write the integer 27 as a ratio, too.

Foir this reason, we\'ll multiply and divide 27 by 3:

(27*3)/3 - 2/3

Since the fractions have common denominator, namely 3, we can compute the subtraction between numerators:

(27*3)/3 - 2/3 = (81 - 2)/3

(81 - 2)/3 = 79/3

The result is written as a fraction and is not put in decimal form and it is:

27 - 2/3 = 79/3
