Correct Answer: 25%
Solution :
Number of colleges in 1980 = 20,000
Percentage of medical colleges in 1980 = 12%
Number of medical colleges in 1980 = $\frac{12}{100}\times 20000$ = 2400
Number of colleges in 1990 = 40,000
Percentage of medical colleges in 1990 = 8%
Number of medical colleges in 1990 = $\frac{8}{100}\times 40000$ = 3200
So, the required percentage = $\frac{3200-2400}{2400}\times 100$ = 25%
Hence, the correct answer is 25%.
