Answer 2

1617 cm of thread.

Explanation:

We are told that the equivalence would be that for each cm of shirt Kira gets 231 cm of thread, therefore it would be:

231 cm thread / 1 cm shirt

they tell us that she managed to remove 7 cm of shirt, therefore:

7 cm shirt * 231 cm thread / 1 cm shirt = 1617 cm thread

Therefore Kira obtained 1617 cm of thread.
