Let x = the # of liters to be drained and replaced.
\n" ); document.write( "After drainage, there is 8 - x liters left, with 25% antifreeze. The amount x liters is 100% antifreeze. The resulting 8 liters of solution has 66% antifreeze.
\n" ); document.write( "Hence 0.25*(8 - x) +1.00x = 0.66*8
\n" ); document.write( "==> 2- 0.25x + x = 5.28
\n" ); document.write( "==> 0.75x = 3.28
\n" ); document.write( "==> x = 3.28/0.75
\n" ); document.write( "+==> x = 4.37 liters of pure antrifreeze
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
