Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ladder, wall, and ground form a right triangle, you can use this formula:

A squared + B squared = C squared

A = 7 feet

C = 25 feet

B = distance the ladder will reach

49 + B squared = 625

B squared = 625 - 49

B = square root of 576

B = 24 feet
