Three fourths of the weight of a bunch of grapes is equivalent to three fifths of the weight of a papaya. If the grapes weigh (x+28) pounds, what is the weight of a papaya in terms of x?

Answer: p=1 1/4x+35

g=grapes
p=papaya

g=3/4(x+28)
g=3/4x+21

g=3/5p
substitute g for '3/4x+21'.
3/4x+21=3/5p
divide both sides by 3/5
1 1/4x+35=p

So..

p=1 1/4x+35
