Question

An apartment is divided such that the original apartment was 80 sq. m, and it has now been split into 60 and 20. How much should each one pay?

Answer

Shalom u-vracha.

The larger unit pays the regular amount, and the smaller one pays 50%.

Source

Since there is an additional residential unit, this causes greater use of the building, and one must charge an additional payment for the unit.
