Aldo paid $13.88 for a 1.98 -pound bag of shrimp at one store. The following week, he paid $38.99 for a 5.46 -pound bag at another store. Find the unit price for each bag. Then state which bag is the better buy based on the unit price. Round your answers to the nearest cent.

13.88/1.98 = 7.01...

38.99/5.46 = 7.14...

Bag 1 unit rate: $7.01 per 1lbs.

Bag 2 unit rate: $7.14 per 1lbs.
