You must be more precise.
Is that:
(1/8)r = 3, r=24
or
1/(8r) = 3, r = 1/24

The question must be: 1/(8r) = 3
Because if it were: (1/8)r = 3
then this would be the same as: r/8 = 3
and then that would probably be what was asked
So, I'm gonna go with the question being: 1/(8r) = 3
whenceforth: 1 = 24r
thus: r = 1/24

(1/8)r = 3
r = 3*8
r = 24

Multiply both sides by 8 to get rid of the fraction.
r = 24
Is the r supposed to be in the denominator, or is the question 1/8 of r is equal to 3?

8*(1/8*r)=8*3
r = 24
