Answer:

10players

Explanation:

Using the concept of probability

probability = expected outcome/total outcome

Total outcome s the numbers of players on the team

Given

Total number of trophy won = 7 (expected)

Fraction of those that won = 7/10 (probability)

Substitute

7/10 = 7/total outcome

1/10 = 1/total outcome

Reciprocate both sides

10/1 = total outcome

Swap

Total outcome = 10

Hence the number of players on the team is 10players
