Only 3MB but says it's full

My dropbox has 3 .pages files (a 3MB folder) and says it's full. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Hi xaviermedina787, thanks for posting today!

     

    Could you check the quota level on this page of your account and let me know what you see?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

      Thanks! Seems like all of it is being used as "backup". How can I delete that to make space? Thanks!
