1. **State the problem:** We need to find which of the given division expressions have the same quotient.
2. **Recall the division rule for fractions:** Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. That is, for any numbers $a$, $b$, and $c$ (with $b,c \neq 0$),
$$a \div \frac{b}{c} = a \times \frac{c}{b}$$
3. **Calculate each quotient:**
- For $18 \div \frac{2}{3}$:
$$18 \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{18 \times 3}{2} = \frac{54}{2} = 27$$
- For $\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{1}{27}$:
$$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{27}{1} = \frac{2 \times 27}{3} = \frac{54}{3} = 18$$
- For $16 \div \frac{2}{5}$:
$$16 \times \frac{5}{2} = \frac{16 \times 5}{2} = \frac{80}{2} = 40$$
- For $18 \div \frac{3}{2}$:
$$18 \times \frac{2}{3} = \frac{18 \times 2}{3} = \frac{36}{3} = 12$$
- For $24 \div \frac{4}{3}$:
$$24 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{24 \times 3}{4} = \frac{72}{4} = 18$$
4. **Compare the quotients:**
- $18 \div \frac{2}{3} = 27$
- $\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{1}{27} = 18$
- $16 \div \frac{2}{5} = 40$
- $18 \div \frac{3}{2} = 12$
- $24 \div \frac{4}{3} = 18$
5. **Conclusion:** The expressions $\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{1}{27}$ and $24 \div \frac{4}{3}$ have the same quotient, which is 18.
