Respuesta :

They donate:

[tex]500\cdot\frac{10}{100}=50\text{ sprouts}[/tex]

then, 500 - 50 = 450 sprouts are left.

They sell:

[tex]450\cdot\frac{20}{100}=90\text{ sprouts}[/tex]

then, 450 - 90 = 360 sprouts are left.

They plant in the greenhouse:

[tex]360\cdot\frac{5}{100}=18\text{ sprouts}[/tex]

then, 360 - 18 = 342 sprouts are left.

The members plant 342 sprouts outside
