To solve this equation, we need to get x by itself on one side of the equation. To do this, we can start by adding 8 to both sides of the equation to get:

2/3 x - 8 + 8 = 24 + 8

This simplifies to:

2/3 x = 32

Then, we can divide both sides of the equation by 2/3 to get:

(2/3) / (2/3) * x = 32 / (2/3)

This simplifies to:

x = 48

So the solution to this equation is x = 48.
