Merge array and hash in ruby if key appears in array

I have two arrays one = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7] and two = [{1=>'10'},{3=>'22'},{7=>'40'}]

Two will have one.length hashes or less. I want a new array of values from two if it's key appears in one, if not then use 0. The new array would be [10,0,22,0,0,0,40] What is the best way to do this?

I'd do it using Enumerable#reduce and Hash#values_at:

two.reduce({}, :merge).values_at(*one).map(&:to_i)
# => [10, 0, 22, 0, 0, 0, 40]

h = [{1 => '10'}, {3 => '22'}, {7 => '40'}].inject(:merge).to_h
one.map{|e| h[e].to_i}
# => [10, 0, 22, 0, 0, 0, 40]
