The Purple Plant Garden Store sells grass seed in ten-pound bags and fifteen-pound bags. Yesterday half of the grass seed they had was in ten-pound bags. This morning the store received a shipment of 27 more ten-pound bags, and now they have twice as many ten-pound bags as fifteen-pound bags. Find the total weight in pounds of grass seed the store now has.

Yesterday   10 t   = 15 f       or      t = 15/10 f

Today   15/10 f + 27 = 2 f

                f = 54   = 15 pound bags      t = 108 bags

                        total weight = 1890#
