I suggest you study colligative properties. The pressure lowering of the water is PX' as P stands for the pressure of pure solvent and X' is the molar fraction of the solute. 1L of water has 1000g of water, so there are 1000/18 mols of water ~ 55.6 mols. So, there's 56.6 mols of molecules for every 1L of solution (one comes from glucose and 55.6 from water as calculated). So, the solute molar fraction is 1/56.6 ~ 1.768.10^-2. So the pressure lowering is 760mmHg times 1.768.10^-2, which is ~ 13.44 mmHg. Finally, the vapor pressure of the solution is 760mmHg-13.44mmHg = 746.56mmHg.
