The team lost n games.

The team won 8 more games than it lost, so it won n + 8.

The total number of games the team played was n + n + 8, or 2n + 8.

The team played a total of 24 games, so

2n + 8 = 24

We now solve for n.

2n + 8 = 24

2n = 16

n = 8 (lost games)

n + 8 = 8 + 8 = 16 (won games)

Answer: The team won 16 games and lost 8 games.
