Identify the fractions as proper, improper, or mixed; however, if the fraction is equivalent to one, indicate so.

Ok I don't know what Mixed is but I would say this is improper.

3 x 8 = 24 + 1 = 25

25/8 is improper

proper would mean that its below 8/8

so Mixed is probably the right answer from elimination

3 1/8 is a mixed fraction. However, 3x8 =24, so the improper fraction would be 24/8.
