Answer:

Given the conditions, Alex's new weight would be:

166.5 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

In terms of percentage, you should consider that Alex's initial weight is 100% when mentioning that he loses 10% of his initial weight, you must perform subtraction of percentages to obtain the new percentage of his initial weight:

Alex's Current Weight Percentage = 100% - 10% = 90%

Now you just have to multiply the initial weight by his new percentage and you will get Alex's new weight in pounds:

Alex's current weight = 185 pounds * 90%
Alex's current weight = 166.5 pounds.
