A spring of negligible mass is compressed between two blocks, A and B, which are at rest

Question:

A spring of negligible mass is compressed between two blocks, A and B, which are at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface at a distance of 1.0 m from a wall on the left and 3.0 m from a wall on the right. The sizes of the blocks and spring are small. When the spring is released, block A moves toward the left wall and strikes it at the same instant that block B strikes the right wall. The mass of A is 0.60 kg. What is the mass of B?
