You can put this solution on YOUR website! Extremely common mixture question, whatever alloy, whatever percentages, whether for alloy, tea, coffee, candies, chemical solutions,... too many.
See the lesson, "Mixing two concentrations for known amount of mixture", found in the lessons link in my profile.
