Let total no. of teachers = X
Total Teacher in E university = 29% of X
1856 = 29/100 × X
X = 6400
So, Total number of teachers = 6400
Total number of teachers = 6400
Percentage of teachers in university A = 11%
∴ Number of teachers in university A = (11/100) × 6400 = 704
Percentage of teachers in university B = 17%
∴ Number of teachers in university B = (17/100) × 6400 = 1088
Percentage of teachers in university C = 19%
∴ Number of teachers in university C = (19/100) × 6400 = 1216
Percentage of teachers in university D = 6%
∴ Number of teachers in university D = (6/100) × 6400 = 384
Percentage of teachers in university E = 29%
∴ Number of teachers in university E = (29/100) × 6400 = 1856
Percentage of teachers in university F = 18%
∴ Number of teachers in university F = (18/100) × 6400 = 1152
Number of teachers together in university D and E = 384 + 1856 = 2240
⇒ Percentage of teachers in university B with respect to university D and E together
⇒ (1088/2240) × 100 = 49%
∴ Percentage of teachers in university B with respect to university D and E together = 49%
