We are given the following information
Investment = $5200
Annual interest rate = 4.2% = 0.042
Final amount = $16,500
Number of years = 27.7 years
Number of compoudings = quartely = 4
The student uses the following model

The general formula for compound interest is given by

As you can see, the number of compoundings is incorrect (3 vs 4)
The interest rate is also incorrect.
Let us substitute the given values into the above formula

Therefore, the final amount is approximately $16,543.5
Solving this requires use of conversions
we already know that
2.05 m > 2 m
all that's left is the question
200 cm vs. 2.05 meters
I we know our equivalencies, we know that
100 cm = 1 m
if this is so then
200 cm = 2 m
we already know that
2.05 m > 2 m
so it must also be that
2.05 m > 200 cm
C=2pr, r=c/(2p)
a=pr^2, using r found above we get:
a=p(c^2/(4p^2))
a=(c^2)/(4p), since c=106.76 and we approximate pi as 3.14
a=(106.76^2)/(4*3.14)
a=11612.2176/12.56 cm^2
a≈924.54 cm^2 (to nearest one-hundredth of a square cm)

It's just the black part and the empty square under which is 1/2 and the red square with the empty square under is 1/2 so it's 1/2 x 1/2
