Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = number of females with PhD, b = number of males with PhD, c = number of females without PhD, d = number of males without PhD
a+b=14
c+d=30
c-a=10 --------number of females without PhD are ten more than females with PhD
(44-(a+c)/3=14-a ------- a third of the male faculty have PhD
44-a-c=42-3a
44-c=42-2a
c-2a=2
c-a=10
a=8
b=6
Hence number of females with PhD is 8.
