Answer:

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.
