Answer 1

The Answer (maybe) :

Hello there, I am here to help you with your question :)
I believe the answer is 20.

The explanation:

`Divide`
`2, 12`,
`shall`
`be`
`6`
`then`
`6` ÷
`24`
`= 4`
`then,`
`4` ×
`5`
`=`
`20`

Answer/ Writer's note: I'm truly sorry if this is incorrect, I'm very tired.
