The cost for 1 candy bar is $

Answer 1

To find the price of one candy bar, we can divide the total cost by the number of candy bars for each entry:

1. For 10 candy bars:
\[
\text{Price per candy bar} = \frac{8.0}{10} = 0.80
\]

2. For 12 candy bars:
\[
\text{Price per candy bar} = \frac{9.6}{12} = 0.80
\]

3. For 15 candy bars:
\[
\text{Price per candy bar} = \frac{12.0}{15} = 0.80
\]

4. For 21 candy bars:
\[
\text{Price per candy bar} = \frac{16.8}{21} = 0.80
\]

In all cases, the price for one candy bar is consistently $0.80.

Thus, the cost for 1 candy bar is **$0.80**.
