This question could not be asked in Paper PM because it is a very basic Paper MA (was Paper F2) question and is much to simple for Paper PM.
Everything needed to be able to answer this question is explained in my free Paper MA lectures. The MA lectures are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well (and similarly, the Paper free PM lectures cover everything needed to be able to pass Paper PM well 🙂 )
