Help w/ Specific Gravity Calculation

I couldn't find a calculator that would do this for me.

I have 140.44 gallons of water @ a specific Gravity of 1.030. How many gallons will I need to exchange for fresh water in order to bring my specific gravity down to 1.026?

Thanks!

As in your other thread:

Add 21.6 gallons of RO/DI or exchange 18.7 gallons.
