On a standard ruler, 2.4 inches would fall between the 2-inch mark and the 3-inch mark. Each inch on a ruler is divided into 16 equal parts, so you would count 4/10 of the way between the 2-inch mark and the 3-inch mark to locate 2.4 inches. It would be closer to the 2-inch mark but not quite halfway between the two marks.
