Kiwi has a part-time job tutoring students and math for 40 hours each month she will be tutoring one student for 1/4 of the allotted time this month and another student for 3/8 of the allotted time this month how many hours of tutoring will she be able to provide to the other students in this month solve this multi-step real word problem involving multiplication with fractions Express the answer in simplest form

Kiwi will be tutoring two students for a total of 40 hours each month.

For the first student, Kiwi will spend 1/4 of the allotted time, which is 1/4 * 40 = <<1/4*40=10>>10 hours.

For the second student, Kiwi will spend 3/8 of the allotted time, which is 3/8 * 40 = <<3/8*40=15>>15 hours.

In total, Kiwi will spend 10 + 15 = <<10+15=25>>25 hours tutoring these two students.

To find out how many hours she can provide to the other students, we subtract this amount from the total allotted time: 40 - 25 = <<40-25=15>>15 hours.

Therefore, Kiwi can provide 15 hours of tutoring to the other students this month. Answer: \boxed{15}.
