The figure below shows a parallel piping system that delivers turpentine to a mixing tank, where it will be used to prepare paint thinner. The turpentine must be supplied at a rate of 100 gpm (= Qout). Line 1 is made of 2-nominal pipe that is 150 ft long from A to B. Line 2 is 11/2-nominal pipe that is 125 ft long. Both pipes are schedule 40 stainless steel. The valve in line 1 is a fully open globe valve, and all fittings are threaded. The pressure at B must be 10 psig as required by the mixing process. Determine the flow rate in each line and the pressure at A.

Question
This is a practice problem for an upcoming test, but I'm not really sure which direction to solve it in. If I use a basic pressure equation do I have to do iterations? Cause we should be able to take a ratio of flow in both pipes. Any information on the direction of how to solve this problem will be extremely helpful, as well as solving it.
