\[ \frac{3}{2} + 5 = \frac{13}{2} = 6.5 \]

The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{3}{2}\) and \(\frac{5}{1}\) is \(2\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{3}{2} + 5 &= \frac{3 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 1} + \frac{5 \cdot 2}{1 \cdot 2} \\ &= \frac{3 + 10}{2} \\ &= \frac{13}{2} \end{aligned} \]
