    The 7.5 pound bag is better to buy because it is only 15 cents more that the weight and the 6 pound bag is 27 more cents than its weight

    The 7.5-pound would be a better buy since it is costing 1.02 per pound, while the 6 pound bag is costing 1.045 per pound. In conclusion the 7.5 bag is more expensive since it has more quantity, but in terms of a better buy, it is the choice to go with since you are getting a smaller price per pound.
