Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "3".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Percentage demand,

= 6% i.e., .06

Percentage change in the price,

= 2% i.e., .02

Now,

Own-price elasticity of demand will be:

On substituting the estimated values, we get

=  [tex]\frac{.06}{.02}[/tex]

=  [tex]3[/tex]
