[Tutor] Update values stored as a list in a dictionary with values from another dictionary

Hello all,
Let's say I have the following dictionary:
{1:(a,b,c), 2:(a,c), 3:(b,c), 4:(a,d)}
I also have another dictionary for new value association:
{a:1, b:2, c:3}
How should I approach if I want to modify the first dictionary to read:
{1:(1,2,3), 2:(1,3), 3:(2,3), 4:(1,d)}
There is the potential to have a value in the first dictionary that will not
have an update key in the second dictionary hence in the above dictionary
for key=4 I still have d listed as a value.
As always all help is appreciated.
M.
