The answer is 27/8!

To convert a mixed number to a fraction, you must multiply the denominator (8) by the number beside the fraction (3).

8 x 3 = 24.

Next, you add the numerator (3) to your answer!

24 + 3 = 27.

Lastly, put this number over your original denominator (8).

Therefore, the answer is 27/8!! I hope this helped!! <33
