Answer 1

Answer:

b. 2/3

Explanation:

Given the fraction:

$\frac{18}{27}$

We can write each of the numbers as a product below:

$\frac{18}{27}=\frac{2\times9}{3\times9}$

Next, cancel the common number, 9:

$\frac{18}{27}=\frac{2\times\cancel{9}}{3\times\cancel{9}}=\frac{2}{3}$

The simplified form of the fraction is 2/3.

Option B is correct.
