Customs duty at a percentage of an item's value

Rs. 6,000
💡 What it's asking: Customs duty is a tax on imported goods, worked out as a percentage of their value. We need 12% of Rs 50,000.
- Write 12% as 12/100.
- Find 1% of 50,000: 50,000 ÷ 100 = 500.
- 12% is 12 × 500 = 6,000, so the duty is Rs 6,000.
✅ 10% of 50,000 is 5,000, and 12% should be a little more: 6,000 fits.

තීරු බද්ද යනු ආනයනික භාණ්ඩවල වටිනාකමෙන් ප්රතිශතයක් ලෙස අය කරන බද්දකි. අපට අවශ්ය රු. 50,000 න් 12% යි.
- 12% යනු 12/100 ලෙස ලියන්න.
- 50,000 න් 1% සොයන්න: 50,000 ÷ 100 = 500.
- 12% යනු 12 × 500 = 6,000; එබැවින් තීරු බද්ද රු. 6,000.
Arc length of a 45° sector

33 cm
💡 What it's asking: The arc is the curved edge of a 45° slice of a circle. 45° is one eighth of a full turn, so the arc is one eighth of the whole circumference.
- Fraction of the circle: 45/360 = 1/8.
- Whole circumference = 2πr = 2 × 22/7 × 42 = 264 cm.
- Arc = 1/8 × 264 = 33 cm.
✅ The radius is 42 cm; a 45° arc is a short curve, a bit shorter than the radius, so 33 cm is reasonable.

චාපය යනු 45° කේන්ද්රික ඛණ්ඩයක වක්ර දාරයයි. 45° යනු සම්පූර්ණ භ්රමණයෙන් අටෙන් එකක් නිසා චාපය මුළු පරිධියෙන් අටෙන් එකකි.
- වෘත්තයෙන් කොටස: 45/360 = 1/8.
- මුළු පරිධිය = 2πr = 2 × 22/7 × 42 = 264 cm.
- චාපය = 1/8 × 264 = 33 cm.
