### Problem Statement
Evaluate the expression for \( A = 90^\circ \), \( B = 0^\circ \), and \( C = 270^\circ \).

\[ 
\frac{\sin A + 2\cos B}{\sec B - 3\csc C} 
\]

**Solution Steps:**

1. **Calculate Trigonometric Values:**
    - \( \sin(90^\circ) = 1 \)
    - \( \cos(0^\circ) = 1 \)
    - \( \sec(0^\circ) = \frac{1}{\cos(0^\circ)} = 1 \)
    - \( \csc(270^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sin(270^\circ)} = \frac{1}{-1} = -1 \)

2. **Substitute the Values:**

    \[ 
    \sin A + 2 \cos B = 1 + 2 \cdot 1 = 1 + 2 = 3
    \]

    \[ 
    \sec B - 3\csc C = 1 - 3 \cdot (-1) = 1 + 3 = 4
    \]

3. **Form the Expression:**

    \[
    \frac{\sin A + 2 \cos B}{\sec B - 3 \csc C} = \frac{3}{4}
    \]

Thus, the evaluated expression yields a result of \( \frac{3}{4} \).
