To solve the equation \( 27x34 - 1 = 26 \), we can first isolate the term involving \( x \):

1. Add 1 to both sides:
\[
27x34 = 27
\]

2. Divide both sides by 27:
\[
x34 = 1
\]

3. Divide both sides by 34:
\[
x = \frac{1}{34}
\]

Now, we need to find the correct choice from the provided responses. Unfortunately, the options do not match with \( \frac{1}{34} \). However, if we are looking for an approximation, we can do further checks:

Since \( x = \frac{1}{34} \), it can be approximated in decimal form, but none of the options are decimal approximations.

Let's check again if there was a mistake with interpreting the options, or misread values given in those options.

- **1** is \( 1 \)
- **0** is \( 0 \)
- **2527** is \( \frac{25}{27} \)
- **3** is \( 3 \)

Given that the fraction \( \frac{1}{34} \) does not seem to be among the expected answers. A possible oversight or misrepresentation of the equation's terms in options could lead us to check further.

However, assuming the equation was misrepresented or wrongfully phrased, often the closest possibly interpretive answer could lead you to see **0** as a near choice, simply indicating decreased multiplicative equations.

Thus, from the context of problem resolution and options, the best step forward would seemingly align closest to:

- **0**

Yet, do cross-check your equation and available choices if distance from the stated values or assumptions were apparent.
