How to solve this percent mixture problem?

Hello, I was able to solve the percent mix problem before this one, but this just has me stumped for some reason. I'm having trouble understanding how to step up mixture equations.
 
Two factory plants are making TV panels. Yesterday, Plant A produced 4 times as many panels as Plant B. Five percent of the panels from Plant A and 2% of the panels from Plant B were defective. How many panels did Plant B produce, if the two plants together produced 2640 defective panels?
