This is pretty self-explanatory but to send money to friends or to whoever you are buying from, You will need their BTC Address. A BTC address is a combination of random letters/numbers so you will need to make sure you Copy it correctly or else it will go to someone else.
Here is how a BTC Address should look, " 1Hz5ev5cwpxzmnNTF64EsjAabTngYWBNbg " or Alternatively you can just have the person send their QR Code to be scanned. It'll instantly be identified and you will able to send them the payment that way.
If you are wondering how to send the amount you want, Just click on the "USD" tab and enter the amount you want to send. If you are trying to send a payment that looks like " 0.04534345" then simply that number into the "BTC" Tab. It will automatically show you the amount you are sending in USD.

4. Viewing payment amounts
When sending or receiving BTC, You will see this large amount of numbers that may seem very confusing to some people.

To view the actual amount, You will need to simply click on the green box containing the numbers to view the actual amount of money you are receiving/sending.
5. Confirmations
Confirmations are basically what confirms payments that are being received/sent, It takes a few minutes for it to go through, Confirmations do NOT prevent you from the payments from being put into your wallet, but sometimes it does hold it for an hour or so but eventually it will be processed.
6. How do I purchase more Bitcoin?
You can use the 2 other sites I linked in this thread, You can purchase BTC with both your Bank and Credit card (Identity Verification may be needed)

7. Miners Fee
The Miners fee is when you send or if you receive BTC from someone else, It charges a fee from the payment. It can range from a few cents to a few dollars DEPENDING on the amount being sent. More Money = Higher the Miners Fee
