00:01 Hello students, we are given a question here.
00:02 The quantity demanded rises from 1 ,000 to 1 ,500 units.
00:07 When the price falls from 1 .5 to 1 per unit, students, the price elasticity of demand of product is.
00:17 So we are supposed to know that here, price elasticity, okay, students, price elasticity of demand of the product can be written as percentage change in a quantity students and divided by here we can write divided by percentage change in a percentage change in a price now we can say that here percentage change in quantity can be written as 1500 minus 1 ,000 divided by on the basis of 1 ,000.
01:02 Which is initial quantity demanded times hundred and divided by percentage change in price so it should be like one minus 1 .5 students 1 .00 minus 1 .50 and divided by 1 .50 times 100 here we can just say that 100 would be cancelled out by 100 students now we can just write it as 1500 minus 1000 it means 500 divided by thousand and whole divided by one minus 1 .5 it means minus point five divided by 1 .5 so we can write here that the minus of 500 divided by 1 ,000 it means 1 divided by 2 divided by it should be 0 .5 divided by 1 .5 it means 1 divided by 3 okay students now here we can just write it as a minus of when we shifted 3 in the numerator so it will be 3 by 2...
