To find out how much it would cost to buy 8 ounces of Red Snaps, we multiply the cost per ounce ($0.25) by the number of ounces (8): 0.25 * 8 = $<<0.25*8=2>>2.
To find out how much it would cost to buy 8 ounces of Blue Tarts, we multiply the cost per ounce ($0.30) by the number of ounces (8): 0.30 * 8 = $<<0.30*8=2.40>>2.40.
To find the difference in price, we subtract the cost of Red Snaps from the cost of Blue Tarts: 2.40 - 2 = $<<2.40-2=0.40>>0.40.
So it would be $0.40 more expensive to get a bag of Blue Tarts instead of a bag of Red Snaps.
