First:
3 feet=1 yard
36 inches=1 yard

8 feet=2 \(\frac{2}{3}\) of a yard
12 inches=1/3 of a yard.

2\(\frac{2}{3}\)+\(\frac{1}{3}\)=2\(\frac{3}{3}\) or 3. 

Hope this helps!

need to convert to the same unit of measure

3 ft / 1yd= 8 ft/ x yds
cross multiply
x= 2 2/3 yds

12 in = 1/3 yd added to 2 2/3 yds

answer is 3 yds

hope this helps
