A new integral equation in which the hypernetted-chain and Percus-Yevick approximations are "mixed" as a function of interparticle separation is described. An adjustable parameter in the mixing function is used to enforce thermodynamic consistency. For simple 1{r^n} potential fluids, is constant for all densities, and the solutions of the integral equations are in very good agreement with Monte Carlo calculations. For the one-component plasma, is a slowly varying function of density, but the agreement between calculated solutions and Monte Carlo is also good. This approach has definite advantages over previous thermodynamically consistent equations.
