14 The number of girls is the repeated identity. Make the number of girls the same. LCM of 2 and 4 is 4.
Number of students who do not wear watches
= 1 u + 2 u
= 3 u
Total number of students
= 1 u + 3 u + 2 u + 4 u
= 10 u
Percentage of the students in the fun fair who do not wear watches
=
310 x 100%
= 30%
Answer(s): 30%
