Answer:

Big one! 6 43/72

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to get rid of the fractions. So, we move aside the two 3's and focus on the fractions. This can be done with this formula:

((A × D) + (B × C)) / B × D

Plug the numbers in and you get:

((3 × 9) + (8 × 2)) / 8 × 9

(27 + 16) / 72

43/72

Then, we add the 3's together and you get:

6 43/72
