The prices of a scooter and a television set are in the ratio 3 : 2. If a scooter costs Rs. 6000 more than the television set, the price of the television set is ?

1. Rs. 6000
2. Rs. 10000
3. Rs. 12000
4. Rs. 18000

Correct Option: C

Let the price of a scooter be Rs. 3x and that of a television set Rs. 2x.
Then, 3x - 2x = 6000
⇒ x = 6000

∴ Cost of a television set = 2x
= Rs. 12000
