There are 40 students in a class girls make up 60% of the class 25% of the girls where glasses how many girls where glasses

We can solve this problem step-by-step:

1. **Total number of students in the class** = 40
2. **Percentage of girls in the class** = 60%

To find the number of girls:
\[
\text{Number of girls} = 60\% \times 40 = \frac{60}{100} \times 40 = 24
\]

3. **Percentage of girls who wear glasses** = 25%

To find the number of girls who wear glasses:
\[
\text{Number of girls who wear glasses} = 25\% \times 24 = \frac{25}{100} \times 24 = 6
\]

Therefore, **6 girls wear glasses**.
