Answer:

45 bags of candy

Explanation:

The first thing is to calculate the money Jordan has, we know that by multiplying the number of bags by their price, that is:

30*12 = 360

I mean, he's got $360, now with this money he wants to buy $8 bags, so it would be

360/8 = 45

That means I could buy 45 bags of candy if they cost $8
