I’m interested in switching from 10 to 8 frame hive boxes. I typically keep only 8 or 9 frames per super in my 10 frame boxes. This may be a dumb question, but how many frames do you keep in the brood box and supers when using 8 frame boxes? Does the number of frames in the super go down to 6 or 7?

I have 8 frame boxes and use 8 frames in them. If I have drawn frames for honey supers, I will take a frame out for fatter comb. J

If you have drawn comb you can get by with six in the honey supers. Seven is more common.
