M\text{ KBr}=\frac{\text{Total Moles KBr}}{\text{Total Volume}} =\frac{\text{Moles KBr from Solution 1 + Moles KBr from Solution 2}}{\text{Volume Solution 1 + Volume Solution 2}} \\ M\text{ KBr}=\frac{\left\lgroup\frac{0.053\text{ mol KBr}}{1\text{ L}} \right\rgroup (0.200\text{ L})+\left\lgroup\frac{0.078\text{ mol KBr}}{1\text{ L}} \right\rgroup (0.550\text{ L})}{0.200\text{ L}+0.550\text{ L}} =0.071333=0.071 \ M\text{ KBr}
