Question

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Given the total purchase amount is ₹2,050 and the discount offered is 26\%.

2. The discount amount can be calculated using the formula:
   
   $$	ext{Discount} = \frac{	ext{Discount percentage}}{100} 	imes 	ext{Total purchase amount}$$

3. Substitute the values:
   
   $$	ext{Discount} = \frac{26}{100} 	imes 2050 = 0.26 	imes 2050$$

4. Calculate the product:
   
   $$0.26 	imes 2050 = 533$$

5. Therefore, Manish saves ₹533 through the discount scheme.

**Answer:** ₹533
