Answer:
£ 105.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is required to decrease £ 120 by 12.5%, to perform this subtraction the following mathematical operation must be performed:
100 - 12.5 = 87.5
100 = 120
87.5 = X
87.5 x 120/100 = X
10,500 / 100 = X
105 = X
Thus, decreasing £ 120 by 12.5% you get a total of £ 105.
