The intensity of light at a distance r...?

The intensity of light at a distance r from a source is given by L = Ir^(−2), where I is the illumination at the source. Starting with the values I = 10, r = 90, suppose we increase the distance by 4 and the illumination by 2. By (approximately) how much does the intensity of light change? dL=?
