1. **State the problem:** Simplify the expression $$\frac{22w + 11}{8w^2 - 6w} - \frac{3}{2w}$$.
2. **Factor where possible:**
- Numerator of first fraction: $$22w + 11 = 11(2w + 1)$$.
- Denominator of first fraction: $$8w^2 - 6w = 2w(4w - 3)$$.
3. **Rewrite the expression:**
$$\frac{11(2w + 1)}{2w(4w - 3)} - \frac{3}{2w}$$.
4. **Find common denominator:** The denominators are $$2w(4w - 3)$$ and $$2w$$.
The least common denominator (LCD) is $$2w(4w - 3)$$.
5. **Rewrite second fraction with LCD:**
$$\frac{3}{2w} = \frac{3(4w - 3)}{2w(4w - 3)}$$.
6. **Combine the fractions:**
$$\frac{11(2w + 1) - 3(4w - 3)}{2w(4w - 3)}$$.
7. **Expand numerator:**
$$11(2w + 1) = 22w + 11$$
$$3(4w - 3) = 12w - 9$$
8. **Subtract in numerator:**
$$22w + 11 - (12w - 9) = 22w + 11 - 12w + 9 = (22w - 12w) + (11 + 9) = 10w + 20$$.
9. **Factor numerator:**
$$10w + 20 = 10(w + 2)$$.
10. **Final simplified expression:**
$$\frac{10(w + 2)}{2w(4w - 3)}$$.
11. **Simplify fraction by dividing numerator and denominator by 2:**
$$\frac{\cancel{10}(w + 2)}{\cancel{2}w(4w - 3)} = \frac{5(w + 2)}{w(4w - 3)}$$.
**Answer:** $$\boxed{\frac{5(w + 2)}{w(4w - 3)}}$$
