you did not provide units. But just as a guess, the answer is the perimeter.
2*l + 2*w = perimeter = 2*8 + 2*3 = 22
if you want the area.
l x w = a = area = 3 x 8 = 24
where l = length and w = width

8+3 does not equal 24 but 8 times 3 does.

8 * 3 = 24... try using ur calculator! :)
8+8 = 16
16 + 8 = 24
therefore, 8*3 = 24!

8 colums in 3 rows - 8*3 = 24 - would that answer your question?

Three rows with eight tiles in each row. I promise I am not laughing.

count again, your question is not very clear but I would guess it is,
8x3 = 24.
