Three identical containers contain three different gases. The masses of the molecules are $m_1, m_2$,and $m_3$,and the number of molecules in the containers are $N_1, N_2$,and $N_3$,respectively. The pressures of the gases in the containers are $P_1, P_2$,and $P_3$,respectively. If these three gases are mixed and filled into a single container of the same volume,what will be the pressure of the mixture?
