Need the solution, please. Thank you.

A man in a boat is at point C, 4 miles distant from the nearest point on the shore. In going to a point B on the shore 7 miles from A, he rows to a point P and walks on to B. If the man rows 3 miles per hour and walks 4 miles per hour and it takes 2 2/3 hours to go from C to B, find the distance AP.
