You must use 9.9 mL of the "NaOH"NaOH.

Explanation:

You can use the dilution formula

color(blue)(bar(ul(|color(white)(a/a)c_1V_1 = c_2V_2color(white)(a/a)|)))" "

where c_1 and c_2 are the concentrations and V_1 and V_2 are the volumes.

You can rearrange this formula to get

V_1 = V_2 × c_2/c_1

Your data are:

c_1 = "19 mol/L"; color(white)(ll)V_1 = "?"
c_2 = "0.15 mol/L"; V_2 = "1.25 L"

V_1 = "1.25 L" × (0.15 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("mol/L"))))/(19 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("mol/L")))) = "0.0099 L" = "9.9 mL"
