Answer 1

Answer:

160.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

There are 144 members at the meeting which is 90% of the total.

Question asked:

What is the total number of green team members ?

Solution:

Let the total number of green team members = $x$

As given that 90% of the total number of green team members = 144

90% of the total number = 144

$\frac{90}{100} \times x=144\\\\ 0.9x=144\\By\ dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 0.9\\x=160$

Therefore, the total number of green team members are 160.
