According to a 1996 survey by the National Association of College and University Business Officers, more than three times as many independent institutions of higher education charge tuition and fees of under $8,000 a year than those that charge over $16,000.
A. than those that charge
B. than are charging
C. than to charge
D. as charge
E. as those charging

From the above problem we can eliminate the choices A,B,C based on the IDIOM " AS MANY...AS"

There is a confusion between D and E... Please explain
