For He: PV = nRT and n = PV/RT
n = (5.6 atm)(3.0 L)/(0.0821 Latm/Kmol)(298K) = 0.687 moles He
For Ne: PV = nRT and n = PV/RT
n = (3.6 atm)(4.5 L)/(0.0821 Latm/Kmol)(298K) = 0.662 moles Ne
Total moles = 0.687 + 0.662 = 1.349 moles
PV = nRT
P = nRT/V
P = (1.349 mol)(0.0821 Latm/Kmol)(298 K)/9.0 L
P = 3.67 atm
