An alcohol solution is formed by mixing two solutions. Solution 1 had a concentration of 20 percent and a volume of 3L while solution 2 had a concentration of 40 percent with a volume of 1L. The resultant solution was named solution 3. Three litres of solution 4 which had an unknown concentration was mixed with solution 3. What must be concentration of solution 4 if that the new resultant solution has a concentration of 50 percent?

It's difficult but in some colleges you may can get 

  a + 5 b  is collinear with c  

  a + 5 b = c           …(1)

b + 6 c is collinear with a  

⇒   b + 6 c = μ a               …(2)

From (1) and (2)

  b + 6 c = μ ( λ c 5 b )          

-> ( 1 + 5 μ ) b + ( 6 λ μ ) c = 0

? b and c
