Let’s solve the expression step-by-step:  
\[
\frac{3}{8} + \frac{3}{8} + 1 + 8
\]

### Step 1: Add the fractions
Since the fractions have the same denominator, we can add them directly:
\[
\frac{3}{8} + \frac{3}{8} = \frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4}
\]

### Step 2: Add the integer terms
Now add the integers:
\[
1 + 8 = 9
\]

### Step 3: Add the result from fractions and integers
Now, add \( \frac{3}{4} \) and \( 9 \). Converting \( 9 \) to a fraction:
\[
9 = \frac{36}{4}
\]
So:
\[
\frac{3}{4} + \frac{36}{4} = \frac{39}{4}
\]

### Step 4: Convert to a mixed number (if preferred)
\[
\frac{39}{4} = 9 \frac{3}{4}
\]

Thus, the final answer is:
\[
9 \frac{3}{4} \quad \text{or} \quad \frac{39}{4}.
\]
