🧩 Why Discount Math Matters

Knowing sale prices helps you avoid overspending and compare deals. Children who understand discounts become savvy consumers.

🎯 How Abacus Teaches Discounts

Find the discount amount: 20% of ₹400 = ₹80 (use 10% = ₹40, double = ₹80). Subtract from original: ₹400 – ₹80 = ₹320. Pay percentage directly: 20% off = pay 80%. 80% of ₹400 = ₹320. Practice: “30% off ₹250” (pay 70% = ₹175). “25% off ₹600” (pay 75% = ₹450).

💡 A Parent’s Strategy

“At the mall, my son calculates sale prices faster than the cashier. He knows a 40% off on ₹1200 is ₹480 off, pay ₹720. He’s the family discount expert.”

You might wonder, “What if the discount is odd like 17%?” Round to 15% or 20% for estimation, or use 10%+5%+2%.
