Let's break down the expenses step by step.

  1. Entrance Tickets: There are 5 people (Candice and 4 friends), and each ticket costs $12. \[ \text{Total for entrance tickets} = 5 \times 12 = 60.00 \]

  2. Fried Oreos: They bought 2 orders of fried Oreos at $4.50 each. \[ \text{Total for fried Oreos} = 2 \times 4.50 = 9.00 \]

  3. Beverages: Each of the 5 people bought their own beverage at $4.75 each. \[ \text{Total for beverages} = 5 \times 4.75 = 23.75 \]

  4. Total Amount Spent: We will now sum up all the expenses: \[ \text{Total money spent} = \text{Total for entrance tickets} + \text{Total for fried Oreos} + \text{Total for beverages} \] \[ \text{Total money spent} = 60.00 + 9.00 + 23.75 = 92.75 \]

Now, putting all the amounts together:

  • Amount spent on entrance tickets: $60.00
  • Total amount spent on fried Oreos: $9.00
  • Total amount spent on beverages: $23.75
  • Total amount spent in all: $92.75
