Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.

So:
a) p=45(1-0.06)^t=45*0.94^t
Where t is the number of weeks.

We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 = 31psi
