(d) 21


Number of students in Primary and High School combined = 3276×23=2184

Number of teachers in Primary and High School combined = 2184/26 = 84; (as the Teacher-Pupil ratio is 26 for both);

Given, the ratio of teachers in Primary to High School = 3:1;

Number of teachers in High School = 84×14=21
