First, let's turn the fraction into a decimal and not worry about the whole number just yet.

In order to write
(3)/(11) as a decimal, we can use long division for 3 ÷ 11 and we will get a quotient of .27.

Next, we can add .27 to our whole number and we will get a sum of 5.27 and that will be our decimal.
