    Determine the percentage of girls wear glasses compared to all students.

    g = 20% * 60%

    g = 20/100 * 60/100

    g = 1,200/10,000

    g = 12/100

    g = 12%

    Determine the percentage of boys wear glasses compared to all students.

    b = 40% * 40%

    b = 40/100 * 40/100

    b = 1,600/10,000

    b = 16/100

    b = 16%

    Calculate the percentage of students wear glasses

    s = 12% + 16%

    s = 28%

    The students wear glasses is 28%
