So for the cranberry muffin, for every 12 (a dozen) it's $3
Banana nut muffin: for every 12, it's $4.32
take the $3 and divide it by 12 which is $0.25 for every cranberry muffin
take $4.32 divide by 12 and you get $0.36 for every banana nut muffin
so $0.25 + $0.36 = $0.61
Therefore the answer is B

Not really sure what you are looking for, but this is how to solve equations such as these.
Let:
x = number of pounds of granola
y = numer of pounds of walnuts
The equation he can use to compute the total cost would be:
$2.00x + $6.00y = $12.00
We know that he bought 3 pounds of granola, so we plug in that for the x value:
$2.00(3) + $6.00y = $12.00
$6.00 + $6.00y = $12.00
To isolate the unknown value which is y, we first need to subtract $6.00 from both sides of the equation:
$6.00 + $6.00y - $6.00 = $12.00 - $6.00
$6.00y = $6.00
Then we divide both sides by $6.00:
$6.00y/$6.00 = $6.00/$6.00
y = 1
So the number of bags of walnuts he can buy is 1 bag.
