$0.03

To find the cost per ounce for the 6-ounce box:
Cost = $0.90
Cost per ounce = $0.90 / 6 ounces = $0.15 per ounce

To find the cost per ounce for the 3-ounce box:
Cost = $0.42
Cost per ounce = $0.42 / 3 ounces = $0.14 per ounce

Difference in cost per ounce between the larger and smaller boxes:
$0.15 per ounce - $0.14 per ounce = $0.01 per ounce

Therefore, the difference in cost per ounce between the larger and smaller boxes is $0.01.
