1. Set up the equation for the number of participating students:

\frac{4}{5}x = 144

2. Solve for the total number of students \( x \):

x = 144 \times \frac{5}{4}

x = 180

3. Calculate the number of students who did not participate:

180 - 144 = 36

Final Answer: 36 students did not participate.
