Answer:

In her next 27 matches, she will win 18 matches.

Explanation:

To solve this situation, use proportional relationships since it is said that the next matches will be at the same rate.


\begin{gathered} (24)/(36)=(x)/(27) \\ x=(27\cdot24)/(36) \\ x=18 \end{gathered}

In her next 27 matches, she will win 18 matches.
