Use the formula

F= I * B * L
where F is the force
I is the current
B is the magnetic field strength,
L is the length of the conductor.

Therefore u can rewrite the equation as

B= FI * L

putting values, B= 2.4*10-412*0.3

Hence your answer comes to 6.67 * 10-5 tesla or weber/meter2

Hope this helps
