The unitary method is a process that determines the value of a specific unit from the value of multiple units, as well as the value of multiple units from of the value of a single unit.
We must first divide to find the value of one thing, and then multiply to determine the value of much more or fewer things.

Now, for the given question;

The cost of 3 pounds of shrimp at Earl's shrimp hut = $38.25.

3 pounds ---------> $38.25

Divide both sides by 3.

1 pound ------------>$12.75

Multiply 12 on both side;

12 pounds -------------> $153.

The cost of 4 pounds of shrimp at shrimpie's for 50.00.

4 pounds ---------> $50.00.

Divide both sides by 4.

1 pound ------------>$12.5

Multiply 12 on both side;

12 pounds -------------> $150.

Cost difference = Earl's shrimp hut - shrimpie

Cost difference = $153 - $150 = $3.

Therefore, Mr. Alfonso will save $3 from the purchase of 12 pounds of shrimp from shrimpies.
