The answer is 432.

From the problem you can set up two equations and solve them for your answer x.

x/24 = n +6

x/36 = n

...

from the second equation we know n = x/36. Plug this into the first equation.

then,

x/24 = x/36 +6

...

rearranging,

x/24 - x/36 = 6

...

finding a common denominator,

3x/72 - 2x/72 = 6

...

x/72 = 6

...

x = 6 * 72

...

x = 432

Your final answer.
