To solve the equation \( \frac{w}{6} - 8 = -6 \), follow these steps:
1. **Add 8 to both sides** to isolate the term with \( w \):
\[
\frac{w}{6} - 8 + 8 = -6 + 8
\]
\[
\frac{w}{6} = 2
\]
2. **Multiply both sides by 6** to solve for \( w \):
\[
6 \cdot \frac{w}{6} = 6 \cdot 2
\]
\[
w = 12
\]
Thus, the solution is:
\[
\boxed{12}
\]
