set it up as a fraction:
8kg = 10kg
24N    ?N
cross multiply
8x=240
x=30N

The weight of an object when the mass is 10 kg will be 30 N.

Let the weight of an object whose mass is 10 kg be represented by x.

Therefore, based on the information given, the equation to solve the question will be:

8/10 = 24/x

Cross multiply

8x = 24 × 10

8x = 240

x = 240/8

x = 30

Therefore, the weight of an object when the mass is 10 kg will be 30 N.
