Show Answer

Correct Answer: (2)

Solution: (2)

In university $J$ ,

Assistant professors $\Rightarrow \frac{250 \times 60}{100}=150$

Professors $\Rightarrow 250-150-75$ $=25$

In university $M$,

Assistant professors $\Rightarrow 63$

Professors $\Rightarrow 100-63-21$ $=16$

Required difference $=(75+21)-(25+16)$ $=96-41=55$
