Well, since they can remain silent, here's a solution (although the problem seems to be a logic puzzle, and the solution is too simple):
red color - 1 second of silence
blue color - 2 seconds
green - 3 seconds
The 100th person remains silent for 1/2/3 seconds (depending on the color of the next wise man's hat) and guesses the color. The next wise man looks at the color of the person in front, remains silent for the required time, and names his color. And so on.
Exactly 99 wise men will survive, i.e., 99%.

No, no, this won't do; I don't like this solution. (Although, the idea is quite good.)
Клан Homo homini

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth...

red color - 1 second of silence
blue color - 2 seconds
green - 3 seconds
The 100th person remains silent for 1/2/3 seconds (depending on the color of the next wise man's hat) and names the color randomly. The next wise man looks at the color of the person in front, remains silent for the necessary time, and names his color. and so on.
The solution is good, but not quite right... :D
Because there is a possibility that someone might miscount the seconds...
Example:
I had a friend who thought ten seconds had passed when only three had! It's a real case.
The solution here should be built a little differently... and strictly mathematically...

What, are we the dumbest ones? ... If we try hard, we might be able to figure it out too... :D

No, I disagree... it's going to be hard for you *not* to solve this puzzle... especially since you already know the solution... :D

A gray, holey sock. Did you guess it?)))))
Step aside from the way of a better man than you
So you fall at his feet hes the one who betrays you
Its the servants devotion for the decay
Stand up

There are no chains

Riddle: Two people are standing back-to-back at a distance from each other. How can they see each other without turning around or using mirrors?

:D If the distance is equal to the circumference of the Earth, they will be standing face to face:D
