Total mixture = 95 L
Initial ratio of milk : water = 15 : 4
Milk = \( \frac{15}{19} \times 95 = 75 \, \text{L} \)
Water = \( \frac{4}{19} \times 95 = 20 \, \text{L} \)
Milk removed = \( \frac{15}{19} \times P = \frac{15P}{19} \)
Water removed = \( \frac{4}{19} \times P = \frac{4P}{19} \)
Remaining milk = \( 75 - \frac{15P}{19} \)
Remaining water = \( 20 - \frac{4P}{19} \)
After adding 18 L of water:
New water = \( 20 - \frac{4P}{19} + 18 = 38 - \frac{4P}{19} \)
\( \frac{75 - \frac{15P}{19}}{38 - \frac{4P}{19}} = \frac{3}{2} \)
\( 2 \left( 75 - \frac{15P}{19} \right) = 3 \left( 38 - \frac{4P}{19} \right) \)
\( 150 - \frac{30P}{19} = 114 - \frac{12P}{19} \)
\( 36 = \frac{18P}{19} \)
\( P = \frac{36 \times 19}{18} = \boxed{38} \)
