Think about this.
PV = nRT for each gas, therefore, if we solve for n = PV/RT then
(PV/RT)<<sub>Ar</sub> = (PV/RT)<sub>H2</sub>. Then, since
n = grams/molar mass, we can write
(PV/RT)<sub>Ar</sub> = (PV/RT)<sub>H2</sub> = (g/MM)<sub>Ar</sub> = (g/MM)<sub>H2</sub>. Since P, V, R, and T are the same, we can dispense with the PV/RT and just write
(g/MM)<sub>Ar</sub> = (g/MM)<sub>H2</sub>.
