Answer:

d = 363/8

Explanation:

Let's write this as a fraction:

8 1/4 2

------------- = -------

d 11

One way in which this could be approached would be to interchange 'd' and '2:'

8 1/4 d 33 d

------------- = ------- or -------- = ---------

2 11 4(2) 11

Multiplying both sides by 11 isolates d:

33(11) 363

-------- = d, or d = ----------

8 8
