Correct Answer: 4
Solution: (4) Number of assistant professors in university $J$
$=\frac{300 \times 72}{100}=216$
Number of professors
$=(300-216)-52$
$=84-52=32$
Number of assistant professors in university $K$
$=\frac{250 \times 40}{100}=100$
Number of professors
$=(250-100)-72$
$=150-72=78$
$\therefore$ Total number of professors $=32+78=110$
Number of assistant professors in university $L=96$
$\therefore$ Required percentage
$=\frac{110-96}{96} \times 100=\frac{14}{96} \approx 15$
