In the formula been provided
12 is the atomic mass
atomic mass = No of proton
24 is the mass number
mass number = mass of protons and neutrons
the mass of electron is negligible in this. so if the mass of neutron is halved than it will be 6
than the atomic mass will be = 12 + 6 = 18

In 12mg24
12 is the atomic number that is number of protons
24 is the mass number. It is 12+12 ( 12 of protons and 12 of neutrons)
Mass of proton ≈ mass of neutron
Mass of electrons is negligible
Even doubling it does not affect the atomic mass significantly
If mass of neutron is halved, the mass of 12 neutrons = 6
Then atomic mass will be 12 (proton mass) + 6(neutron mass) = 18
