3/5 for the first one. if you divide 9 into 27 you get the 3, and 9 into the 45 you get the 5.
The other, 2/7, already is as low as it can go.

First of all, you want to find a common number with the fraction. For 27/45, the common number is 9. Therefore, you divide both numbers by 9, simplifying it to 3/5.
As for 2/7, it's already in lowest terms.
I hope this helps!
