As we already know that capacitor is effectively an open circuit for dc sources after charging up to its final value. The network can be redrawn as by removing capacitor from its branch assuming capacitor act as an open circuit.
Therefore,
$$\begin{split}V_C &= {R_2 \, E \over R_2 + R_1}\\&= {8 \times 24 \over 8 + 4}\\&= 16 V \end{split}$$

$$\begin{split} Q_1 &= C_1 \, V_C\\&= (20\times 10^{-6})(16V)\\&= 320 \mu F\\\end{split}$$
