Answer: $ 5.90 is the the cost of 2 panes of glass

In order to solve this we must divide the number of panes, by the cost spent on the panes. 20.65 divided by 7 is 2.95. This means that each pane is $ 2.95. If there are two panes that were also broken, we have to add 2.95 twice, which is $5.90. This means that the nursey owner must spend another $5.90 on two panes.

I hope this helps & Good Luck <3 !!!
