GPT 3.5
Let t represent the total number of students in the class.

According to the information given, two-thirds of the class own a pet. This can be written as 2/3 * t = 8.

To solve for t, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2:

(2/3 * t) * (3/2) = 8 * (3/2)
t = 24/2
t = 12

So, there are 12 students in the class.
