Alright, lets get started.

In the question given that glacier receded 4 feet a day for a period of 25 days.

Which shows in 1 day, it recedes = 4 feet

means in 1 day, the height of the glacier gets shorter = 4 feet

So, in 25 days, the height of the glacier gets shorter = 4 * 25

So, in 25 days, the height of the glacier gets shorter
= 100 feet

It means the glacier will get 100 feet shorter at the end of the period of 25 days. : Answer

Hope it will help :)
