Given that 25% of teachers in university C are females

∴ Percentage of male teachers in university C = 100 – 25 = 75%

Percentage of teachers in university C = 19%

∴ Number of teachers in university C = (19/100) × 6400 = 1216

⇒ Number of male teachers in university C = (75/100) × 1216 = 912

∴ Number of male teachers in university C = 912
