    Brand b has the 5% of the market.

    Explanation:

    The first market scenario has three brands that share the market as follow:

    Initial market share

    Brand a 15%

    Brand b 20%

    Brand c 65%

    Then brand d captures 30% of the market as Brand a and Brand b lost the relative same amount of market share. Meaning they both lost the 15% of their market share.

    Brand d captures 30%

    This capture leads to the following market share:

    Final market share:

    Brand a 0%

    Brand b 5%

    Brand c 65%

    Brand d captures 30%

    As the incursion of Brand d captured the total share of Brand a then, the Brand A has to left the market. Besides, the Brand b end up with a share of 5% of the total market share.
