Answer:

$ 6.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The cost of each pounds of Caramels = $ 9.28,

So, the cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds of caramels = [tex]1\frac{3}{4}\times 9.28[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{7}{4}\times 9.28[/tex]

[tex]=7\times 2.32[/tex]

= $ 16.24,

Now, the cost of each pounds of milk chocolate = $ 12.80,

So, the cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] milk chocolate = [tex]1\frac{3}{4}\times 12.80[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{7}{4}\times 12.80[/tex]

[tex]=7\times 3.2[/tex]

= $ 22.4,

∵ 22.4 > 16.24,

Thus, the cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds of milk chocolate  > The cost of [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pounds of caramels,

Also, 22.4 - 16.24 = 6.16,

Hence, the cost for 1 3/4 pounds of milk chocolate is $ 6.16 more than the cost for 1 3/4 pounds of caramels.
