I’m in my late 30s just barely taking my 401k seriously.

My employer offers 100% match of the first 3% of pay and 50% match of the next 2% for both Roth and traditional 401k- can someone explain like I’m 5 how this match works?

I am making 55k annually and have 4 months of emergency funds. What would be a good option in my income? I am currently contributing 8% in pretax and 6% on Roth.
