Can someone explain how does 더럽습니다 become 더러워요 in informal? I am currently at Adjectives after the 1st checkpoint and don't know if these rules are covered later or not. Thank you.

Usually, a verb ending in ㅂ (like 더럽다) has the ㅂ dropped in the conjugated form.

Other examples: (hot, as in weather/surroundings) 덥다 -> 더워요

(cold) 춥다 -> 춰요

And many others
