To find out how many dresses Reggie can make, we need to divide the total amount of fabric he has by the fabric used for each dress.
3/8 yards of fabric per dress * x dresses = 3 yards of fabric.
By multiplying both sides of the equation by 8/3, we have:
(3/8) * (8/3) * x = 3 * (8/3).
This simplifies to:
x = 8.
Therefore, Reggie can make 8 dresses. Answer: \boxed{8}.
