Slope is equal to Rise/Run

8% slope is a 'Rise' of  8 for a 'Run' of 100    

I will assume you are asking how long the ramp would be at 8% slope to rise 3 meters

8/100 = 3/x      or x = 300/8  is the 'Run'  =  37.5

      Rise^2 + Run^2   = ramp^2

        3^2    + 37.5^2  = ramp^2       Results in a ramp length of  37.62 m
