- The rebate on each TV set is 40% of its price.

- Price of each TV set = Rs 6,000.

- Rebate per TV = 40% of Rs 6,000 = Rs 2,400.

- Total rebate desired = Rs 26,400.

- Number of TV sets to achieve Rs 26,400 rebate = Rs 26,400 / Rs 2,400 per TV.

- Number of TVs = 11.

- Option 1 (9): 9 TVs would only give Rs 21,600 rebate.

- Option 2 (11): 11 TVs give the exact Rs 26,400 rebate.

- Option 3 (8): 8 TVs would give Rs 19,200 rebate.

- Option 4 (12): 12 TVs would give Rs 28,800 rebate, exceeding the needed rebate.

Correct Answer: Option 2 - 11 TVs.
