The light from a point light source spreads out uniformly in all directions. The intensity at a given distance r from the light = (power output of the light source/ surface area of the sphere). Since the area of a sphere varies as the square of its radius r, the intensity will vary as 1/r2.
If the distance is doubled, the intensity becomes one-fourth.
