Find the constant term in the expansion of $\Big(x^2+\frac{1}{x}\Big)^4$.
I'm not sure if this even has a constant term. Also please write in LaTeX so it is easy for anyone to understand.

normally I would not answer a question presented like this either.
But
I am curious to see what this looked like, I have not seen the big command before.
\(\Big(x^2+\frac{1}{x}\Big)^4\)
general term
\(\binom{4}{n}(\frac{1}{x})^n(x^2)^{4-n}\\ =\binom{4}{n}(x)^{-n}(x)^{8-2n}\\ =\binom{4}{n}(x)^{8-3n}\\\)
n must be 0,1,2,3 or 4 so 8-3n cannot be zero
Hence there is no constant term.
