Each person would get 2 2/3 bags if bags can be split.
Each person would get 2 bags if bags can NOT be split.

Explanation:

Assuming the bags can be split:

The bags will be divided 3 ways, 8/3

So each person would 8/3 bags or 2 2/3 bags

Assuming the bags can NOT be split:

8/3=2 with a remainder of 2 bags

Each person would get 2 bags
