25 The number of girls is the repeated identity. Make the number of girls the same. LCM of 1 and 5 is 5.
Number of students who wear spectacles
= 3 u + 10 u
= 13 u
Total number of students
= 2 u + 3 u + 5 u + 10 u
= 20 u
Percentage of the students in the theme park who wear spectacles
=
1320 x 100%
= 65%
