The expression in the image is:

\[
24 \frac{3}{5} + 17 \frac{4}{1}
\]

We can solve this by first converting the mixed fractions into improper fractions:

1. \( 24 \frac{3}{5} = \frac{24 \times 5 + 3}{5} = \frac{120 + 3}{5} = \frac{123}{5} \)
2. \( 17 \frac{4}{1} = \frac{17 \times 1 + 4}{1} = \frac{17 + 4}{1} = \frac{21}{1} = 21 \)

Now, we add the two fractions:

\[
\frac{123}{5} + 21
\]

Since 21 is a whole number, we convert it to a fraction with the same denominator:

\[
21 = \frac{105}{5}
\]

Now, add the two fractions:

\[
\frac{123}{5} + \frac{105}{5} = \frac{123 + 105}{5} = \frac{228}{5}
\]

The final result is:

\[
\frac{228}{5} = 45 \frac{3}{5}
\]

So, the value of the expression is \( 45 \frac{3}{5} \).
