Calculation:

In order to find the rate of discount, firstly we need to find market price.

____...

We know that,

→ SP = Marked Price – Discount

Then, according to the question :

→ ₹ 1092 = M.P – ₹ 208

→ M.P = ₹ ( 208 + 1092 )

→ M.P = ₹ 1300

Therefore, marked price of the shirt is ₹ 1300.

Now,

→ $\large \bf { Rate \: of \: discount = \Bigg ( \dfrac{Discount}{M.P} \times 100 \Bigg ) \% }$

→ $\bf { Rate \: of \: discount = \Bigg ( \dfrac{208}{1300} \times 100 \Bigg ) \% }$

→ $\bf { Rate \: of \: discount = \Bigg ( \dfrac{208}{13} \Bigg ) \% }$

→ $\bf \red { Rate \: of \: discount = 16 \: \% }$

Therefore, rate of discount is 16 %.
