Answer:

.1 A1 = a1      A1 is amount at .1 %

.01 A2 = a2    A2 is the amount at .01%

a1 + a2 = 454     total of a1 and a2

A = 454 / .03  =  15133.33    tot amount needed

454 = .1 A1 + .01 A2    

A2 = 15133.33 - A1    

454 = .1 A1 + .01 (15133.33 - A1)

454 = .09 A1 + 151.33

A1 = 302.67 / .09 = 3363

A2 = 15133.3 - 3363 = 11770.3

Check:

.1 * A1 = 336.3

.01 * A2 = 117.7

total = 336.3 + 117.7 = 454
