Let's calculate each amount step by step.

  1. Total spent on entrance tickets:

    • There are 5 people (Candice and 4 friends).
    • The entrance ticket costs $12 per person. \[ \text{Total entrance cost} = 5 \times 12 = 60.00 \]
  2. Total spent on fried Oreos:

    • They bought 2 orders, and each order costs $4.50. \[ \text{Total fried Oreos cost} = 2 \times 4.50 = 9.00 \]
  3. Total spent on beverages:

    • There are 5 people, and each beverage costs $4.75. \[ \text{Total beverages cost} = 5 \times 4.75 = 23.75 \]
  4. Total amount spent in all:

    • We sum the costs of entrance tickets, fried Oreos, and beverages. \[ \text{Total spent} = 60.00 + 9.00 + 23.75 = 92.75 \]

Now, let's summarize the amounts:

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