Suppose you want to make a four-bean salad using green beans, wax beans, kidney beans, and garbanzo beans. When you weigh the ingredients you notice the following:
In total, the mass of all the beans in the salad is \(1\) kg.
The sum of the mass of the garbanzo beans and the mass of the green beans make up half of the total mass of the beans in the salad.
The masses of the garbanzo beans and the green beans are the same.
The mass of the wax beans is \(235\) g.
What is the mass of each type of bean in the salad? Justify your answer.
