At one instant, the centre of mass of a ...

At one instant, the centre of mass of a system of two particles is located on the x-axis at `x=3.0m` and has a velocity of `(6.0m//s)hatj`. One of the particles is at the origin, the other particle has a mass of `0.10kg` and is at rest on the `x-`axis at `x=12.0m`.
(a) What is the mass of the particle at the origin?
(b) Calculate the total momentum of this system.
(c) What is the velocity of the particle at the origin?
