Answer:

24%

Explanation:

Price elasticity denotes the percentage change in quantity demanded in response to certain percentage change in price. Elasticity of price is calculated as follows:

Elasticity of price = % change in quantity / % change in price

-2.42 = % change in quantity / 10%

% change in quantity = 2.42 * 10%

% change in quantity = 24.2%
