A ) 527
B ) 327
C ) 427
D ) 227

Steps to derive

1 = 154 + 118

 [Write equivalent fractions using the LCD, 54.]
2 = 154 + 354

 [Since the denominators are same, add the numerators.]
3 = 1+354

 [Simplify.]
4 = 454

 [Divide the numerator and the denominator by the GCF, 2.]
5 = 227

6 227 of the U.S. schools are Colleges and Universities, and Others.



Hence the right answer is Option D
