To find out how many hours of tutoring she will be able to provide to other students this month, we need to find out how many hours she is tutoring the two specified students first.
For the first student, Kimi will be tutoring 1/4 * 40 = 10 hours.
For the second student, Kimi will be tutoring 3/8 * 40 = 15 hours.
In total, Kimi will be tutoring these two students for 10 + 15 = 25 hours.
Therefore, Kimi will be able to provide 40 - 25 = 15 hours of tutoring to other students this month.
