You missed out how much larger/smaller the generic version is.

anonymous · Answer

The generic version was based off the brand name and was 3/4  the size of the brand name.

anonymous · Answer

Okay. In that case, the dimensions of the brand name television are the dimensions of the generic television, just divided by 3/4. So the dimensions will be 12/(3/4) = (12 * 4)/3 = 16 inches by 24/(3/4) = (24*4)/3 = 32 inches.
