Solution

First, let's calculate the cost of breakfast for one person.

A muffin costs 2andafruitcupcosts2 and a fruit cup costs 5.

So, if one person had 1 muffin and 2 fruit cups, the total cost would be:

2(forthemuffin)+22 (for the muffin) + 2*5 (for the fruit cups) = 2+2 + 10 = $12

Since both Mary and Nicole had the same items for breakfast, we multiply the cost for one person by 2:

122=12 * 2 = 24

So, the total cost of their breakfast was $24.
