The expression \( \frac{1}{3} + \frac{3}{2} \) can be solved as follows:

1. Find a common denominator. The denominators are 3 and 2, and the least common denominator (LCD) is 6.
2. Convert both fractions to have this common denominator:
   \[
   \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{6}, \quad \frac{3}{2} = \frac{9}{6}
   \]
3. Add the fractions:
   \[
   \frac{2}{6} + \frac{9}{6} = \frac{11}{6}
   \]

Thus, \( \frac{1}{3} + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{11}{6} \).
