14×196= 2744
5×12= 60
2744+60= 2804

It is given that the exchange rate was $1.90 to £1.

Thus, $1=£
((1)/(1.90))

Now we know that the hotel room cost $196 per night . Therefore, for 14 nights it will be:
196* 14=2744 dollars.

Likewise, we know that WiFi costs $5 per day. Therefore, for 12 days the WiFi cost will be:
12* 5=60 dollars.

Therefore, total Hotel and WiFi cost in pounds is:
(2744+60)/(1.9)=1475.79.

Thus, the the total cost of the flights, the hotel room and wifi in pounds will be:


1500+1475.79=2957.79 pounds or £2975.79
