- Original Average: The average of ten numbers is 24. This means the sum of these numbers is \( 24 \times 10 = 240 \).

- Dividing Each Number by 2: If each number is halved, the new total becomes \( 240 \div 2 = 120 \).

- New Average Calculation: With the new sum of 120 and the same number of numbers (10), the average is \( 120 \div 10 = 12 \).

- Correct Option: The correct answer is Option 4, which states that the new average is 12.

The correct answer is:

- Option 4: 12
