To find out how much more expensive Blue Tarts would be compared to Red Snaps, we need to calculate the cost difference per ounce between the two types of candy.
The Red Snaps cost $0.25 per ounce, and the Blue Tarts cost $0.30 per ounce.
The cost difference per ounce is $0.30 - $0.25 = $0.05.
You decide to buy 8 ounces of candy, so the cost difference for the whole bag would be $0.05 * 8 = $<<0.05*8=0.40>>0.40.
Therefore, it would be $0.40 more expensive to get a bag of Blue Tarts instead of a bag of Red Snaps.
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
