Lets say x is quantity
65%x+25%(600-x)=45%of 600
.65x+.25(600-x)=.45*600
.65x+150-0.25x=270
0.4x=120
x=300ml

Not much can be done without knowing what $\mathbf F(x,y,z)$ is, but at the least we can set up the integral.

First parameterize the pieces of the contour:

$C_1:\mathbf r_1(t_1)=(2\sin t_1,2\cos t_1,0)$
$C_2:\mathbf r_2(t_2)=(1-t_2)(2,0,0)+t_2(3,3,3)=(2+t_2, 3t_2, 3t_2)$

where $0\le t_1\le\dfrac\pi2$ and $0\le t_2\le1$ . You have

$\mathrm d\mathbf r_1=(2\cos t_1,-2\sin t_1,0)\,\mathrm dt_1$
$\mathrm d\mathbf r_2=(1,3,3)\,\mathrm dt_2$

and so the work is given by the integral

$\displaystyle\int_C\mathbf F(x,y,z)\cdot\mathrm d\mathbf r$
$=\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/2}\mathbf F(2\sin t_1,2\cos t_1,0)\cdot(2\cos t_1,-2\sin t_1,0)\,\mathrm dt_1$
${}\displaystyle\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,+\int_0^1\mathbf F(2+t_2,3t_2,3t_2)\cdot(1,3,3)\,\mathrm dt_2$
