Answer:

The answer is "156.25"

Explanation:

Through task, we learn that the overseas Fiat car which cost him 6250.

We get the proportion as follows:


\to 100 :6250=2.5: x\\\\\to (100)/(6250)=(2.5)/(x)\\\\\to 100 * x = 2.5 * 6250\\\\\to x= (2.5 * 6250)/(100)\\\\\to x= 156.25

The duty he has to pay is 156.25.
