Answer:
9* (1)/(8)

Explanation:

Whole number : A natural number ( included 0 ) is called a whole number,

A unit fraction: A fraction having the numerator 1 is called a unit fraction.

Here the given expression,


3* (3)/(8)


=(3)/(1)* (3)/(8)


=(3* 3)/(1* 8)


=(9)/(8)


=9* (1)/(8)

Which is the required expression that shows the product of a whole number (9) and a unit fraction (1/8).


3* (3)/(8)=9* (1)/(8)
