$g = 6$

You are only one step away from isolating the variable, $g$ , on the left.

$g/27 = 2/9" "larr$ multpily by 27 to cancel the denominator

$(color(red)(27 xx)g)/27 = (color(red)(27 xx)2)/9" "larr$ multiply on BOTH sides

$(color(red)(cancel27 xx)g)/cancel27 = (color(red)(cancel27^3 xx)2)/cancel9" "larr " isolate " g$

$rarr g = 6$
