Question:

An alloy is to be made from four other alloys containing copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), zinc (Zn), and iron (Fe). The first is 80% Cu and 20% Ni. The second is 60% Cu, 20% Ni, and 20% Zn. The third is 30% Cu, 60% Ni, and 10% Fe. The fourth is 20% Ni, 40% Zn, and 40% Fe. How much of each is needed so that the final alloy has 56 g Cu, 28 g Ni, 10 g Zn, and 6 g Fe?
