The cheerleading squad at Morristown High School had 10 members with the old coach. Now, with the new coach, there are 10% fewer members on the squad. How many members are on the squad now?

Question

members

Answer 1

The squad had 10 members with the old coach, and now there are 10% fewer members.

10% of 10 is (10/100) * 10 = 1.

Therefore, there are 10 - 1 = <<10-1=9>>9 members on the squad now.
