The correct answer is $0.40.
To calculate the cost difference, we need to find the cost of 8 ounces of Red Snaps and the cost of 8 ounces of Blue Tarts.
For the Red Snaps:
8 ounces x $0.25/ounce = $2.00
For the Blue Tarts:
8 ounces x $0.30/ounce = $2.40
The cost difference between the two is:
$2.40 - $2.00 = $0.40
A candy store sells different types of candy by the ounce. Red Snaps cost $0.25 per ounce, and Blue Tarts cost $0.30 per ounce. You decide to buy 8 ounces of candy to share with your friends. How much more expensive would it be to get a bag of Blue Tarts instead of a bag of Red Snaps?(1 point)
