To solve the equation \( \frac{2}{3}x - 6 = 10 \), follow these steps:

1. **Add 6 to both sides** to isolate the term with \( x \):

\[
\frac{2}{3}x - 6 + 6 = 10 + 6
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
\frac{2}{3}x = 16
\]

2. **Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of \( \frac{2}{3} \)**, which is \( \frac{3}{2} \):

\[
x = 16 \times \frac{3}{2}
\]

Calculate:

\[
x = 16 \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{48}{2} = 24
\]

So, the solution is:

\[
x = 24
\]
