Answer:

  $0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of each box is $30. To make a profit of $10, the 50 candy bars must be sold for a price that will generate $30 +10 = $40 in revenue:

  $40/(50 bars) = $(4/5)/bar = $0.80 per bar

The school must charge $0.80 for each candy bar to make a profit of $10 per box.
