I have two different products, which both uses a mixture of two chemicals.
Suppose you have to prepare the mixture for Product A and Product B at the same time. How many liters of mixture for Product A and Product B can you prepare using the available inventory of the chemicals available?
Here's the amount in liters each product need.
Product AProduct B
Acid Chemical (liters)
0.178​
0.546​
Stabilizer (liters)
0.638​
0.199​

INVENTORY AVAILABLE:
Acid Chemicals = 393 L
Stabilizer = 630 L

How many liters of Product A and B can I make?

So I have found correct answer using Wolfram, but on exam you're only allowed to use Excel, and I want to figure out how to do this easily with goalseek or solver?
