15 The number of boys is the repeated identity. Make the number of boys the same. LCM of 1 and 5 is 5.
Number of students who do not wear watches
= 1 u + 10 u
= 11 u
Total number of students
= 1 u + 4 u + 10 u + 35 u
= 50 u
Percentage of the students in the stadium who do not wear watches
=
1150 x 100%
= 22%
Answer(s): 22%
