To find the unit rate of dollars per bag of chips, you divide the total cost by the number of bags.

  1. Total cost: $56.04
  2. Number of bags: 9

Now, calculate the unit rate:

\[ \text{Unit rate (dollars per bag)} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of bags}} = \frac{56.04}{9} \]

Now, perform the division:

\[ \frac{56.04}{9} \approx 6.22666667 \]

Rounding to the nearest hundredth:

\[ 6.23 \]

So, the unit rate of dollars per bag of chips is $6.23 per bag.
