Answer:

5.6 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take x gallons of 25% grape juice then it will contain \frac{x}{4} gallons of pure grape juice.

Again, if we take y gallons of 75% grape juice then it will contain \frac{3y}{4} gallons of pure grape juice.

If we mix them then the total volume will become x + y = 7 gallons  ...... (1)

Again the mixture will become 35% juice.

So, \frac{\frac{x}{4} +\frac{3y}{4} }{x+y} =\frac{35}{100}

⇒ 0.25x + 0.75y = 0.35x + 0.35y

⇒0.1x = 0.4y

⇒x = 4y........ (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get, 5y = 7, ⇒ y = 1.4 gallons

Hence, x = 4y = 5.6 gallons

Therefore, the 25% grape juice was mixed by 5.6 gallons. (Answer)
