From the similarity relationships, we can write


(x+2)/(3)=(24)/(6+3)

By moving the denominator 3 to the right hand side, we get


x+2=3*(24)/(9)

which gives


\begin{gathered} x+2=(24)/(3) \\ x+2=8 \end{gathered}

then, by moving +2 to the right hand side. we have


\begin{gathered} x=8-2 \\ x=6 \end{gathered}

then, the answer is x=6
