Given:
4 1/7 * 3 3/5

4 1/7 = (4*7)+1/7 = 29/7
3 3/5 = (3*5)+3/5 = 18/5

29/7 * 18/5 = 29 * 18 / 7 * 5 = 522 / 35 = 14.91

Simplified expression.
4 x 3 1/2

3 1/2 = (3*2)+1/2 = 7/2

4 * 7/2 = 4*7 / 2 = 28 / 2 = 14

It is a close estimate.   Actual: 14.91 vs Estimate: 14

Try this solution (analytic method):

1. if new line is parallel to the given one (y=3x+2) it means the new line has a form y=3x+b, where b - number.

2. In order to calculate 'b', it need to substitute the coordinates of point (6;1) into the equation of the new line:

1=3*6+b, ⇒ b=-17.

3. If to make up the equation of the new line:

y=3x-17
