110 The number of boys is the repeated identity. Make the number of boys the same. LCM of 1 and 10 is 10.
Number of students who do not wear spectacles
= 1 u + 40 u
= 41 u
Total number of students
= 1 u + 9 u + 40 u + 50 u
= 100 u
Percentage of the students in the theme park who do not wear spectacles
=
41100 x 100%
= 41%
Answer(s): 41%
