Show Answer

Correct Answer: (3)

Solution: (3)

Total number of females in university $K=\frac{250 \times 80}{100}=200$

Number of assistant professors $=\frac{250 \times 40}{100}=100$

Female assistant professors $=\frac{100 \times 3}{4}=75$

Female professors and associate professors $=200-75=125$

$\therefore$ Required per cent $=\frac{125}{200} \times 100=62.5$
