AI explanation

To create a 35 percent alcohol solution by volume, the 35 ml of alcohol must constitute 35 percent of the total volume of the final mixture, meaning the total volume must be 100 ml. The question asks what the 35 ml of alcohol should be mixed in, so it must be mixed in a 100 ml solution. This ensures the remaining 65 ml is water, making the alcohol exactly 35 percent of the total.
