Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of pressure of products to the pressure of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_p$

K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

$2A(g)\rightleftharpoons B(g)$

The expression for $Q_p$ is written as:

$Q_p=\frac{p_B}{(p_A)^2}$

$Q_p=\frac{(2.0)}{(2.0)^2}$

$Q_p=0.5$

$K_p=0.76$

Thus as $K_p>Q_p$ , the reaction will shift towards the right i.e. towards the product side.
