Say I have this sequence:
$$a_n = fracn^2sqrtn^3 + 4n$$
Again, I don't think I can divide the numerator and denominator by $n^1.5$... that seems like it complicates things. What else can I do?
I can't square the top and bottom because that changes the value of the general sequence. Can I divide by $n^2$?
Is this valid:
$$a_n = frac1sqrtfracn^3n^4 + frac4n$$

What are you trying to do with the sequence? Are you trying to determine if it converges / find its limit? In your last identity, you should have $4/n^3$ in the denominator.

You can easily find a divergent minorant:
$$fracn^2sqrtn^3 + 4n ge fracn^2sqrtn^3 + 4n^colorblue3 = sqrtfracn5 to +infty$$

We have:
$$a_n = fracsqrtn sqrt1 + frac4n^2$$
You can see that the denominator tends to 1, so that $a_n$ clearly diverges, behaving asymptotically as $sqrtn$.
