Trade Discount: This is a discount given by manufacturers to wholesalers who buy in bulk.

• Discount= Marked Price – Selling Price
• Discount (%) = (Marked Price – Selling Price) / Marked Price × 100

Example:-
Question – A store is offering a 20% discount on all its items. If a shirt originally costs ₹150, what is the discounted price of the shirt?
Answer – Discount = Original Price × Discount Rate
Discount = ₹150 × 0.20
Discount = ₹30

So, the discount on the shirt is ₹30.

Now, we subtract the discount from the original price to find the discounted price:

Discounted Price = Original Price – Discount
Discounted Price = ₹150 – ₹30
Discounted Price = ₹120
