ds:word problem

How many pints of sugar solution were added to the mixed fruit juice in the container?
1) After the sugar solution was added the final solution in the container became 1.5 times the original mixed fruit juice present in the container.
2) There were 25 pints of mixed fruit juice originally present in the container.

A gives only percentage and B gives info about original juice [C/E]

100% is 25 150% is how much... 37.5

37.5-25 = 12.5 of sugar is added.[c]
First take: 640 (50M, 27V) - RC needs 300% improvement
Second take: coming soon..
