I want to combine the advective transport equation for two solutes such that

dC1(z)/dt=D(d2C1(z)/dz2)-v dC1(z)/dz + J1

and

dC2(z)/dt=D(d2C1(z)/dz2)-v dC2(z)/dz + J2

where C is the concentration in the fluid, t = time, z = distance, v = velcity, D = dispersion coefficient, and J is a flux term for C to the fluid

I want to combine to yield

d(C1/C2)/dt = ?

I can't work out the specific form of the chain rule or quotient rule I need to use... can anyone please help me? Be most appreciated!
