Answer:

The total number of green team members is 160.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

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

So, let the total number be [tex]x[/tex].

According to question:

  90% of [tex]x[/tex]=144.

⇒[tex]\frac{90}{100}\times x=144[/tex]

⇒[tex]0.90\times x=144[/tex]

⇒[tex]0.90x=144[/tex]

Now, dividing both sides by 0.90 we get:

⇒[tex]x=160[/tex]

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