The correct answer is: $0.02$
$\frac{p^{\circ}-p_{\mathrm{S}}}{p^{\circ}}=\frac{w_{2} M_{1}}{M_{2} w_{1}}$
Where, $w_{2}$ and $M_{2}$ are weight and molecular mass of solute.
$M_{1}$ and $w_{1}$ are molecular mass and weight of solvent.
$$
\frac{\Delta p}{p^{\circ}}=\frac{6}{60} \times \frac{18}{90}=\frac{1}{50}=0.02
$$
