swap file and swap partition

I have Ubuntu 20.04. When I installed it a swap partition was created, I also have a swap file. I can tell by the 'free' command that my swap file is being used. How can I tell if my swap partition is being used? Since I have a swap file, should I delete my swap partition? Why do I have both? I am short on RAM, so should I increase the size of my swap file or swap partition or both?latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=0xhf280JQSI:HXdNV1t8vJI:F7zBnMy latest?i=0xhf280JQSI:HXdNV1t8vJI:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=0xhf280JQSI:HXdNV1t8vJI:gIN9vFw0xhf280JQSI
