To determine how many serves landed in, we can use the ratio provided: for every 2 serves that land in, 4 serves land out. This gives us a total of 6 serves (2 in + 4 out).

We can set up a proportion based on this ratio.

Let \( x \) be the number of serves that landed in. Then the number of serves that landed out would be \( 2x \) (because for every 2 serves that land in, there are 4 that land out).

According to the problem:

\[
x + 2x = 24
\]

Solving this equation:

\[
3x = 24
\]
\[
x = \frac{24}{3} = 8
\]

So, 8 serves landed in.

To find how many serves landed out:

\[
2x = 2 \times 8 = 16
\]

Thus, if he hit 24 serves total, then 8 serves landed in and 16 serves landed out.
