Answer: Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

there are two similar televisions at a local electronics store,

12 inches by 24 inches

We need to calculate the dimensions of brand name television ,

Since it is also given that the generic television was two third of the size of the brand name, i.e.

$\text{Generic television}=(2)/(3)* \text{brand television}$

Now,

$\text{brand television }=(3)/(2)* \text{generic television}$

So, length of brand name television becomes

$(3)/(2)* 12=3* 6=18\ inches$

Breadth of brand name television becomes

$(3)/(2)* 24=3* 12=36\ inches$

18 inches by 36 inches

So, Third option is correct.
