Let's break down the problem:

1. We know that walking one way and riding back takes Jonathan 12 minutes.
2. We also know that walking both ways would take him 24 minutes.

From this, we can infer that riding is faster than walking. We can find out how much faster by subtracting the time it takes to walk one way (half of the total walking time) from the total time it takes to walk one way and ride back.

So, 24 minutes (total walking time) / 2 = 12 minutes (time to walk one way)

Then, 12 minutes (time to walk one way and ride back) - 12 minutes (time to walk one way) = 0 minutes (time to ride one way)

This means that riding takes no time at all, which is not possible. There seems to be a mistake in the problem. The time it takes to walk both ways should be more than the time it takes to walk one way and ride back. Please check the problem again.
