To find out how much more expensive a bag of blue tarts would be compared to a bag of red snaps when buying 8 ounces of each, you can follow these calculations:

  1. Cost of Red Snaps:

    • Cost per ounce = $0.25
    • Total cost for 8 ounces = 8 ounces * $0.25/ounce = $2.00
  2. Cost of Blue Tarts:

    • Cost per ounce = $0.30
    • Total cost for 8 ounces = 8 ounces * $0.30/ounce = $2.40
  3. Difference in Cost:

    • Difference = Cost of Blue Tarts - Cost of Red Snaps
    • Difference = $2.40 - $2.00 = $0.40

Therefore, a bag of blue tarts would cost $0.40 more than a bag of red snaps for 8 ounces.
