    Let x gallon of pure alcohol added to 15 % mixture to make it upto 25 %

    15 % alcohol of 20 gallon can be shown as

    (15 / 100) * 20 + x = (25 / 100) (x + 20)

    3 + x = 0.25 x + 5

    0.75 x = 2

    X = 2.66 gallon

    Hence, 2.66 gallon of pure alcohol need to added to 20 gallon 15 % alcohol to obtain 25 % solution.
