When you start to make this operations, you will find out that the correct answer is, NaCl 5.56 mM glucose, 16.7 mM.

Explanation:

First of all you should need to find, how many mols are in the first solutions you add: In glucose you have 0.100m, so as you know they are in 1000ml, how many, in 25 ml? this is 2,5 * 10^-3 moles. In NaCl, you should do the same, 1000 ml has 0.5 mols, so how many are, in 15ml?. The answer is 7.5 * 10^-3. Now, that you have your mols you have to take account the water which is in 450 ml. So, let's go again, in 450ml you have 2,5 * 10^-3 moles of glucose and 7.5 * 10^-3 moles of NaCl, how many moles of them, are in 1000 ml. You will get that concentrations are 0,0167 M in NaCl and 5,56 * 10^-3 M. Let's see that this numbers are in M, so if u want to get mM, just * 1000.
