============================================

Work Shown:

3 & 1/2 = 3 + 1/2 = 3 + 0.5 = 3.5

3.5% = 3.5/100 = 0.035

r = 0.035 is the decimal form of which is used along with

to get the following

A = P*(1+r/n)^(nt)

A = 500*(1+0.035/12)^(12*0.5)

A = 508.81405074594

A = 508.81

Extra info: Gabe earned A-P = 508.81 - 500 = 8.81 dollars in interest.
