She bought 27 peppers and 2/3 of those or 18 were red
(3/4) apples = 18
apples = 24
She bought 24 apples of which 18 were red
check:
(2/3) of 27 = 18 red peppers
(3/4)(24) = 18 red apples
(3/4) apples = 18
apples = 24
She bought 24 apples of which 18 were red

(2/3) of 27 = 18 red peppers
(3/4)(24) = 18 red apples
