Consumer surplus is the area below the demand curve and above the price.
The given function is a rectangular hyperbola. Rearrange it in terms of price and quantity demanded and then integrate it, first from 0 to e and then 0 to e^2 and then subtract them to get the change in consumer surplus.
Thanks.
