Fill in the Blank

A logistics manager is calibrating distribution efficiency ratios and needs to evaluate the expression 727÷(3536)-\frac{7}{27} \div \left(-\frac{35}{36}\right). After rewriting the division as multiplication by the reciprocal, they obtain the product 7362735\frac{7 \cdot 36}{27 \cdot 35}. To simplify the expression before multiplying, they look for common factors to divide out. The greatest common factor shared by 27 (in the denominator) and 36 (in the numerator) that is divided out is ____.
