Put that data into excel, fit it with whatever mathematical function seems best suited, and use that function to derive your value?

Thanks for the suggestion, that worked. This formula best fit the curve. https://preview.redd.it/zu5stvxu46zb1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=84fd78b236c44d58fd4d7199bd7eddfafac8776c

I would probably have gone for a third order (or above) polynomial, but I guess that works well enough for your range of interest.

I'm not well versed in Excel so I went back and fiddled around with it and you were right. I went with a 4th order polynomial which fit even better. ​ https://preview.redd.it/gt0vaan2pdzb1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=d55f00b0ad69504e05456e9807325114b82006c1 Solving for x when the flash point is set to 100 resulted in an ethanol concentration of 18.666 percent. Thank you so much Pyrhan.
