Answer:

96 students

Explanation:

I am not exactly sure if this question is talking about a 1:5 ratio, but that's what I am assuming. To get 96, you need to replace the 5 with 480 because the problem seems to mean 1 to every 5 people wear glasses. Next, you do 480/5 to get the number on the left side of the ratio. You get 96 when you do that. I am a little confused with the question because it isn't exactly formatted correctly, but this is what I am guessing. Hope this helps!
