1. Problem Description

The problem is to simplify the expression 32+4x13\frac{3}{2} + \frac{4x-1}{3}.

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to find a common denominator for the two fractions. The least common multiple of 2 and 3 is

6. We rewrite each fraction with the common denominator 6:

32=3×32×3=96\frac{3}{2} = \frac{3 \times 3}{2 \times 3} = \frac{9}{6}
4x13=(4x1)×23×2=8x26\frac{4x-1}{3} = \frac{(4x-1) \times 2}{3 \times 2} = \frac{8x-2}{6}
Now we can add the two fractions:
96+8x26=9+(8x2)6=9+8x26=8x+76\frac{9}{6} + \frac{8x-2}{6} = \frac{9 + (8x - 2)}{6} = \frac{9 + 8x - 2}{6} = \frac{8x + 7}{6}

3. Final Answer

8x+76\frac{8x+7}{6}
