Answer
$-\frac{1}{3}$
Work Step by Step
Step 1: We need to transform 27 into a number of power 3 so that exponential powers can cancel each other out
Step 2: We find that $27=3^{3}$
Step 3: Therefore, we can write $(-\frac{1}{27})^{\frac{1}{3}}$ as $(-\frac{1}{3^{3}})^{\frac{1}{3}}$
Step 4: $(-\frac{1}{3^{3}})^{\frac{1}{3}}$= $-\frac{1^{\frac{1}{3}}}{3^{3\times\frac{1}{3}}}$
Step 5: $-1^{\frac{1}{3}}$=$-1$ and ${3^{3\times\frac{1}{3}}}$=$3$ as both 3s cancel each other out
Step 6: Therefore, what remains is $-\frac{1}{3}$
