\[ \frac{9}{3} - 1 + 8 = 10 \]

The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{9}{3}\), \(\frac{-1}{1}\), and \(\frac{8}{1}\) is \(3\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{9}{3} - 1 + 8 &= \frac{9 \cdot 1}{3 \cdot 1} + \frac{-1 \cdot 3}{1 \cdot 3} + \frac{8 \cdot 3}{1 \cdot 3} \\ &= \frac{9 + -3 + 24}{3} \\ &= \frac{30}{3} \\&= 10 \end{aligned} \]
