In the fifth grade there are 4/5 as many students who do not have glasses as those who do wear glasses if there are 60 students who wear glasses how many students are there in fifth grade

Respuesta :

Answer:

300 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 4/5 of students do not wear glasses, 1/5 of students do.  

There are 60 students who wear glasses, so let 'x' represent the number of students who wear glasses

(1/5)x = 60     is our equation.  "One-fifth of the number of students who wear glasses is 60"

Now solve for x

(1/5)x = 60

    x = 300    (multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of the fraction)
