Fill in the Blank

A technician is following a standard procedure to evaluate the expression −718÷(−1427)-\frac{7}{18} \div \left(-\frac{14}{27}\right) for a machine calibration calculation. After rewriting the operation as multiplication by the reciprocal, they combine the terms to form 7⋅2718⋅14\frac{7 \cdot 27}{18 \cdot 14}. To simplify the expression before calculating the final product, they factor the numbers and divide out the common factors of 7 and ____ from the numerator and the denominator.
