    a + b = 33

    a/b = 3/8 = > a = 3b/8

    3b/8 + b = 33

    3b + 8b = 264

    11b = 264

    b = 24

    a = 33 - 24

    a = 9

    9 : 24

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Sum the parts of the ratio, 3 + 8 = 11 parts

    Divide 33 by 11 to find the value of one part of the ratio

    33 : 11 = 3 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

    3 parts = 3 * 3 = 9

    8 parts = 8 * 3 = 24
