Answer:

There are 180 students at the school

Step-by-step explanation:

If 10% of the students like the color purple, then 100-10 = 90% do not like the color purple.

Students * percentage that do not like = students that do not like

students * 90% = 162

Change to decimal form

students *.90 = 162

Divide each side by .90

students *.90/.90 = 162/.90

students = 180

There are 180 students at the school
