Explanation:

Assuming you mean 2 7/27+8 5/92727+859,
you can convert these into improper fractions (see here).

Now we have (54+7)/27+(72+5)/9=61/27+77/954+727+72+59=6127+779
But we have two different denominators! So we have to make them similar. Remember that 9*3=2793=27, so we can convert the right fraction to denominator 27.

61/27+(77*3)/(9*3)=61/27+231/276127+77393=6127+23127
Adding the numerators gets you 292/2729227. If you use this then you can convert to 10 22/27102227 (don't worry, the link explains the steps).
