A mixed number combines a whole number and a fraction. The expression $27\frac{3}{4}$ is a mixed number.

Understanding the Mixed Number Components

In the mixed number $27\frac{3}{4}$:

• The whole number part (integer) is $27$.
• The fractional part is $\frac{3}{4}$.
• In the fractional part $\frac{3}{4}$, the number $3$ is the numerator and $4$ is the denominator.

Identifying the Remainder

The question asks for the "remainder" in the expression $27\frac{3}{4}$. In the context of mixed numbers, this typically refers to the numerator of the fractional part.

Therefore, the numerator of the fractional part $\frac{3}{4}$ is $3$.

This value, $3$, represents the remainder if the mixed number were derived from an improper fraction calculation (e.g., $111 \div 4 = 27$ with a remainder of $3$).

Conclusion

The remainder, meaning the numerator of the fractional part, in the expression $27\frac{3}{4}$ is $3$.
