Question

three fourth of the weight of a bunch of grapes is equivalent to three fifths of the weight
of papaya,if the grapes weigh (X+28)pound. what is the weight of papaya in terms of X.

Answer 1

Let weight of grapes be 'g'and that of papaya be 'p'. Then $\frac{3}{4} g= \frac{3}{5} p.$. Given that g=(x+28). Then weight of papaya, p=5x/4 + 35.

Answer 2

Weight of grapes = g
Weight of papaya = p

It is given that,
$g = \frac{3}{5} X p$

Therefore,
$x+28 = \frac{3}{5} p$

Therefore,
$p = \frac{3x + 84}{5}$
