Initially tank I and tank II each contains 100 gal of brine, tank I having 200 lb salt and tank II 50 lb of salt in solution. Brine runs at 2 gal/min from tank I to tank II through one pipe and at 3 gal/min from tank II to I through another pipe. The brine is kept well stirred. How much salt (in lb) will be in the second tank after 50 min?
