Q = 40

Q1 = 30

Change in price = 10%

Percentage in quantity = Change in Quantity/ Quantity X 100

= 10/40X100

= 0.25 X 100

= 25

Price elasticity of demand = Percentage change in quantity/ Percentage in price

= 25/10

= 0.4

The demand is more elastic as the elasticity of demand is less than one.

Market demand refers to the quantity of a commodity that all the consumers are willing and able to buy at a particular price during a given period of time. If the pollution in air increases, the demand for air purifier will also increase. This will lead to a rightward shift in the market demand curve.
