    percentage of professional professor are 75

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given data

    academic professors A = 60%

    professors tenured P = 70%

    professors at Paracelsus University = 90%

    to find out

    what percent of the professional professors

    solution

    we know 90% of the professors are academic professors or tenured or both so we can say percent of academic professors = 60 + 70 - 90 = 40

    because here

    total = A + P - both

    90 = 60 + 70 - both

    both = 40

    so professors tenured will be here 70 - 40 = 30

    so

    percentage of professional professor are = 30 / 40 * 100

    percentage of professional professor are 75
