Can anyone help me with a quick calculation?

How do I calculate how much corn sugar to add to 1 gal. of juice at 1.048 to bring the S.G. up to 1.068?

I dont have beersmith on this computer, and my internet is being too fussy to use beercalculus. I'm sure this has been asked before, but all the search brought up for me was 1,000,000 "how much priming sugar do I add" threads.

Thanks!

1 gallon, not 5 gallons. That would be some strooong ****.

Haha I guess I could have figured that out from your first post...Being an engineer and all.

Time to lay off the homebrew.
