See a solution process below:

First, rewrite the expression as:

$root(3)(8 * 27 * 3) => root(3)(2^3 * 3^3 * 3)$

Now, use this rule of radicals to simplify the expression:

$root(n)(color(red)(a) * color(blue)(b)) = root(n)(color(red)(a)) * root(n)(color(blue)(b))$

$root(3)(2^3 * 3^3 * 3) =>$

$root(3)(2^3) * root(3)(3^3) * root(3)(3) =>$

$2 * 3 * root(3)(3) =>$

$6root(3)(3)$
