Answer: Hello there!

We know that Kim needed 9 inches of trim for every kitchen towel she was making, and we know that she made 25 towels.

We want to know how many feet of trim did Kim use.

Firs step:

if every towel need 9 inches, and she made 25 towels, then she used 9*25 inches = 225 inches

Second step:

we want the solution in feet, then we need to transform the 225 inches into feet.

1 ft is equivalent to 12 inches.

Then 225 inches are 225/12 ft = 18.75 ft

Now we know that Kim did use 18.75 ft of trim.
