To find the number of clamshells Jasmine has, you need to multiply the total number of seashells (8) by the fraction that represents the proportion of clamshells.

First, express three-quarters as a fraction: 3/4.

Next, multiply 3/4 by 8:

(3/4) * 8 = 3 * 8 / 4 = 24 / 4 = 6.

Therefore, Jasmine has 6 clamshells.
