本月数学JJ第320题，请教英文意思

40% of the employers are temporary and 15% of the employers are temporary employers who are also professors, which is the percentage of the temporary employees who are not the professors?答案：(40%-15%)/40%=62.5%

看了答案我明白最后一句话的意思是”temporary employers中不是professors的人占temporary employers的百分比“，但如果不看答案，很容易理解为”temporary employers中不是professors的人占所有employers的百分比“，感觉语法上说不太通哦。请明白的筒子指点一下，谢谢！

不会误解啊，这句话中“which is the percentage of the temporary employees who are not the professors” 的the percentage of THE TEMPORARY EMPLOYEES 不是表明了分母应该是暂时员工吗

如果是这样，那么who are not the professors修饰的对象是谁呢？
原句中的这种表达方式，很容易让人以为who are not the professors修饰的对象是temporary employees的。
如果把who are not the professors当做分子，那么分母和分子之间，不需要什么介词吗？

啊，这个还需要斟酌，我先出去吃个饭，回来好好研究下

which is the percentage of the temporary employees who are not the professors不是说temporary employee中不是professor人数的比例吗
who are not the professor 修饰的是temporary employee，那么此比例的分子是not professors temprorary employee，分母是temprorary employee

没有豁然开朗，为什么分母是temprorary employee？

把这个当SC来做，我怎么看分母都没直接说明是什么。

percentage of A who are XX，怎么能说分母是A呢? 除非是percentage in A of those who are XX. 分母没说明也就顺延为total employee.

我是这么理解的：which is the percentage of the temporary employees who are not the professors，分母是紧跟在of后面的词，也就是the temporary employees，即what在the temporary employees中所占的百分比是多少。那么what是什么呢？就是后面的who are not the professors，也就是在the temporary employees中，who are not the professors所占的比重是多少。

定语从句肯定是修饰前面的名词的，我怀疑是复述不完全吧
