1. Problem Description

The problem asks to simplify the expression 2363+3272\sqrt{3} - \frac{6}{\sqrt{3}} + \frac{3}{\sqrt{27}}.

2. Solution Steps

First, we simplify the second term by rationalizing the denominator:
63=6333=633=23\frac{6}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{6}{\sqrt{3}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{6\sqrt{3}}{3} = 2\sqrt{3}
Next, we simplify the third term. We know that 27=9327 = 9 \cdot 3, so 27=93=93=33\sqrt{27} = \sqrt{9 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{9} \cdot \sqrt{3} = 3\sqrt{3}. Therefore,
327=333=13=1333=33=133\frac{3}{\sqrt{27}} = \frac{3}{3\sqrt{3}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} = \frac{1}{3}\sqrt{3}
Now, we substitute these simplified terms back into the original expression:
2363+327=2323+1332\sqrt{3} - \frac{6}{\sqrt{3}} + \frac{3}{\sqrt{27}} = 2\sqrt{3} - 2\sqrt{3} + \frac{1}{3}\sqrt{3}
Combining like terms, we get:
2323+133=03+133=1332\sqrt{3} - 2\sqrt{3} + \frac{1}{3}\sqrt{3} = 0\sqrt{3} + \frac{1}{3}\sqrt{3} = \frac{1}{3}\sqrt{3}

3. Final Answer

The simplified expression is 133\frac{1}{3}\sqrt{3}.
The answer is B.
