Idk what 20/20 is, I guess you guys use a different scale, last mandatory vision test at work was 12/10 with 6/7 on I don't remember which color recognition range, but I'm not sure about the latter 'cause it was ok last year and 6/7 the year before also. IIRC the best score for visual acuity is 18/10, but I don't think they test that far during work visits, I'd have to go to the ophthalmologist to know.
I would imagine it's the same scale, just a base 10 feet instead of 20 feet. So in yours you would see at 24 feet what the average person would see at 20 feet. Assuming there is a linear relation, and no circumstantial drop off.
I doubt it's feet, but if it's a distance, I guess it doesn't matter much
