Answer: 20%

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand shows the increase in quantity demanded as a result of a decrease in price and vice versa.

It is calculated by the formula:

Price elasticity of demand = Change in quantity demanded / Change in price

The formula can therefore be used to find the increase in quantity. Price elasticities are usually denoted in negatives even if not shown so:

-4 = x / -5%

x = -4 * -5%

x = 20%
