Answer:

28 workstations

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let us find the area of the shop to be built:

Area = Length × width

Area = 14.0 × 10.0 = 140.0 m²

Next, we are told that each workstation allows 5.0 m²

this means that:

5.0 m² = 1 workstation

1.0 m² = 1/5 workstation

∴ 140.0 m² = 140 × 1/5 workstation

= 140 × 0.2 = 28 workstations
