.75(x+3)=.5(3)+x

You already have 3 liters, and you are going to add x liters.

50% (.5) of the 3 liters is acid, and 100% (1) of the added x liters is acid. You will end up with (3+x) liters.

If you have been assigned this problem, you should be able to solve this equation...

Hope this helps you solve this, and remember how to do others like it.
