Answer:

<u>The correct answer is 58 1/2 feet. See below to understand the difference of both methods.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the question using both methods:

Area of each student = 4 1/2 square feet

Number of students = 13

2. Let's use the first method to solve the question:

4 1/2 = 9/2 (Improper fraction because the numerator, 9 is bigger than the denominator, 2)

9/2 * 13 = 117/2

<u>117/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>

3. Let's use the second method to solve the question:

4 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 (Using addition to rewrite the fraction)

(4 + 1/2) * 13 = (4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) (Distributive property of the multiplication)

(4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) = 52 + 13/2 = 52 + 6 1/2

<u>52 + 6 1/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>

Roth IRA doesn't get you a tax deduction for the contributions, but the earnings grow tax free and you don't pay tax on the withdrawals after retirement. A traditional IRA gives you a tax deduction for the contributions at the time you make them, and the earnings grow tax free, but when you withdraw the money after retirement, you are taxed on it. The idea is that you are hopefully in a lower tax bracket at that point. So its only natural that Roth IRA is the best.
