उत्तर

1.5

Explanation:

  • Elastic Supply is characterized by a price elasticity of supply greater than 1. This means that the percentage change in quantity supplied is greater than the percentage change in price.

  • The value 1.5 indicates elastic supply, as it is greater than 1. The other options (0, 0.5, and 1.0) indicate inelastic or unitary elastic supply.
