Given:
Brian pays £160 per week in rent.
His landlord decides to decrease the rent by 17.5%.
To Find:
How much rent does he pay now?
Solution:
We know that,
Initial rent paid per week by Brian = £160
Percentage decrease in rent per week = 17.5%
Amount of rent per week decreased = 17.5% of £160
= (17.5/100) x 160
= £28
Revised rent paid per week by Brian = £160 - £28 = £132
Hence, Brian pays £132 per week in rent now.
