well..this is a ratio problem

8 : 11 is the ratio of antifreeze to water

so if you have 32 pints of water...you are quadrupling the anitfreeze number right? so to keep the same concentration...you would also quadruple the water number

so

32 : 44

meaning 44 pints of water to keep the concentration the same
