Most of the members 'at' the meeting. I think 'in' the meeting and offers 'was' is right answer.

What is the difference between "at the meeting" or "in the meeting"?

I also think so. It can be "in the meeting" and of course "was" is right answer.

I agree that group is a single entity and so the answer is was.
But why not "is". It is not mentioned/clear that the case is closed. It may be still in operation.
Also not sure about "in" or "at" meeting? Difference?
