To solve the equation, we can start by distributing the -2 to both terms within the parentheses:

-2(4-n) = 24
-8 + 2n = 24

Next, we'll isolate the variable term by adding 8 to both sides:

2n = 32

Finally, divide both sides by 2 to solve for n:

n = 16

So the solution to the equation is n = 16.
