Answer:

3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

By drinking 3/8 liters of 1/2 liter juice it means the question tests the ability to multiply fractions. Since she drank 3/8*1/2=3/16

We multiply the numerators and denominators separately ie 3*1/(8*2)=3/16

Therefore, Alisa consumed 3/16 or 0.1875 or 18.75% of the juice.

Since the question was in fractional form, it is prudent to also express answer in fractions hence the right answer is 3/16

Answer:

$\large\boxed{d=\dfrac{e^2+e}{1-3e}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{d-e}{3d+e}=e\\\\\dfrac{d-e}{3d+e}=\dfrac{e}{1}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\(1)(d-e)=(e)(3d+e)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\d-e=3de+e^2\qquad\text{add}\ e\ \text{to both sides}\\\\d=3de+e+e^2\qquad\text{subtract}\ 3de\ \text{from both sides}\\\\d-3de=e^2+e\qquad\text{distribute}\\\\d(1-3e)=e^2+e\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ (1-3e)\\\\d=\dfrac{e^2+e}{1-3e}$
