The work done is calculated using the formula $W = F \cdot d$, where $W$ is work, $F$ is the force applied, and $d$ is the distance over which the force is applied. Here, $F = 22 \mathrm {~N}$ and $d = 4.3 \mathrm {~m}$, so $W = 22 \mathrm {~N} \cdot 4.3 \mathrm {~m} = 94.6 \mathrm {~J}$, which rounds to $95 \mathrm {~J}$.
