Solution

Step 1: Calculate the area of the shop. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length by the width. In this case, the shop is 5 metres by 14 metres, so the area is 5 * 14 = 70 square metres.

Step 2: Multiply the area of the shop by the cost of the carpet per square metre. The carpet costs 2.42persquaremetre,sothetotalcostwouldbe702.42=2.42 per square metre, so the total cost would be 70 * 2.42 = 169.40.

So, it would cost $169.40 to recarpet the shop.
