the CIDR suffix it’s the sum of all bits in one in the subnetmask which it’s 4 octet with 8 bit each one of them,so if you have CIDR suffix /27 that mean there is 27 bit in one,next you start from left to right replacin the 0 into 1., and them the only thing you need to do is convert binary to decimal, and there you go you answer
11111111.11111111.11111111.11100000
255 . 255 . 255 . 224
