Solution:

To convert the fraction into improper fraction, multiply the whole number with the denominator and add the numerator to the product. The denominator will remain the same.

=> {(2 x 8) + 1}/8
=> {16 + 1}/8
=> 17/8

2 1/8 in improper fraction is 17/8.

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

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