You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(27\frac{2}{3}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ 27\frac{2}{3} = \frac{83}{3} = 27.\overline{6} \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{27}{1}\) and \(\frac{2}{3}\) is \(3\). \[ \begin{aligned} 27\frac{2}{3} &= \frac{27 \cdot 3}{1 \cdot 3} + \frac{2 \cdot 1}{3 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{81 + 2}{3} \\ &= \frac{83}{3} \end{aligned} \]
