\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&amount&concentration&
\begin{array}{llll}
concentrated\\
amount
\end{array}\\
&-----&-------&-------\\
\textit{90\% sol'n}&1125&0.9&(1125)0.9\\
\textit{water}&x&0&0x\\
-----&-----&-------&-------\\
mixture&y&0.75&0.75y
\end{array}

so.. whatever "x" is, we know 1125 + x = y
and whatever the alcohol concentration yield may be, we know

(1125)(0.9) = 0.75y

(1125)(0.9) = 0.75y   <--- solve for "y", that's how much the final amount of milliliters will be

how much pure water was added? subtract 1125 from that, or y - 1125
