B. 160

D. 153

E. None of these

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Number of lecturers in various subjects are:
$$\eqalign{ & \text{Chemistry → } \frac{13}{100}\times1600 = 208 \cr & \text{Education → } \frac{18}{100}\times1600 = 288 \cr & \text{Hindi → } \frac{12}{100}\times1600 = 192 \cr & \text{Mathematics → } \frac{21}{100}\times1600 = 336 \cr & \text{Physics → } \frac{14}{100}\times1600 = 224 \cr & \text{Zoology → } \frac{22}{100}\times1600 = 352 \cr} $$

Subject Number of Males Number of Females
Chemistry 208 × $$\frac{1}{8}$$ = 26 208 - 26 = 182
Education 288 × $$\frac{5}{8}$$ = 180 288 - 180 = 108
Hindi 192 × $$\frac{1}{4}$$ = 48 192 - 48 = 144
Mathematics 336 × $$\frac{3}{7}$$ = 144 336 - 144 = 192
Physics 224 × $$\frac{9}{14}$$ = 144 224 - 144 = 80
Zoology 352 × $$\frac{7}{16}$$ = 154 352 - 154 = 198

Required difference
= 198 - 48
= 150
