12km

Explanation:

I am under the assumption that by "24 per hour" you mean 24 kilometres per hour, is that correct?

Assuming that is true, then:
30 minutes is #1/2# of an hour, found by simplifying #30/60#.

Distance is (average) speed #*# time (in hours). To find distance, simply multiply #24# by #1/2# to get #12km#.
