What does an improper fraction of 3 and 3 eights?

The whole number part of the mixed number 3 is equal to 24 eighths. 3 x 8 is 24. You already have 3 eighths in the fraction part of the mixed number. So you add 24 eighths to 3 eighths and you get 27 eights. So... 27/8


How do you divide a square into eighths and label each eighth with an appropriate fraction?

To divide a square into eighths, you can first split the square in half vertically and then in half horizontally, creating four smaller squares. Next, divide each of these four squares in half again, either vertically or horizontally, resulting in a total of eight smaller squares. Label each eighth with the fraction 1/8, indicating that each represents one part of the whole square.
