    (D) 43.48 percent fall in the price of a ticket.

    Explanation:

    Price Elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand to change in the price of a product. It calculates the ratio of change in demand and change in price.

    Price elasticity of demand = % change in demand / % change in price

    0.23 = 10% / % change in price

    % change in price = 0.1 / 0.23

    % change in price = 0.4348 = 43.48%

    Fall in price will increase the attendance in the game.
