    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)
