Answer 1

Let's break down the expenses step by step:

1. Entrance tickets:

   • There are 5 people (Candice and her 4 friends).
   • The cost for entrance tickets is $12 per person. $$\text{Total for entrance tickets}=5\times 12=60.00$$

2. Fried Oreos:

   • They bought 2 orders of fried Oreos, and each order costs $4.50. $$\text{Total for fried Oreos}=2\times 4.50=9.00$$

3. Beverages:

   • Each of the 5 people bought their own beverage, with each beverage costing $4.75. $$\text{Total for beverages}=5\times 4.75=23.75$$

4. Total amount spent in all: $$\text{Total spent}=\text{Total for entrance tickets}+\text{Total for fried Oreos}+\text{Total for beverages}$$ $$\text{Total spent}=60.00+9.00+23.75=92.75$$

Now we can summarize the expenses:

• How much money was spent on the entrance tickets? $60.00
• What was the total amount spent on the fried Oreos? $9.00
• What was the total amount spent on the beverages? $23.75
• How much money did they spend in all? $92.75
