Answer

$A_{Re-185}$ = 184.9518 amu $A_{Re-187}$ = 186.9569 amu

Work Step by Step

$\frac{37.4}{100}$ x $A_{Re-185}$ + $\frac{62.6}{100}$ x $A_{Re-187}$ = 186.207 $A_{Re-185}$ + $A_{Re-187}$ = 371.9087 37.4 x $A_{Re-185}$ + 62.6 x $A_{Re-187}$ = 18620.7 $A_{Re-185}$ + $A_{Re-187}$ = 371.9087 | x 37.4 37.4 x $A_{Re-185}$ + 62.6 x $A_{Re-187}$ = 18620.7 37.4 x $A_{Re-185}$ + 37.4 x $A_{Re-187}$ = 13909.38538 37.4 x $A_{Re-185}$ + 62.6 x $A_{Re-187}$ - 37.4 x $A_{Re-185}$ - 37.4 x $A_{Re-187}$ = 25.2 x $A_{Re-187}$ = 18620.7 - 13909.38538 = 4711.31462 25.2 x $A_{Re-187}$ = 4711.31462 $A_{Re-187}$ = 186.9569 amu $A_{Re-185}$ = 371.9087 - 186.9569 = 184.9518 amu
