About
The character 卅 is a numeral meaning thirty. It forms a compound ideograph by joining three 十 (ten) characters with a single horizontal stroke through their centers, visually representing three tens combined. While thirty is more commonly written as 三十 in daily use, this single-character form appears in formal, historical, and traditional accounting contexts to denote the same quantity.
