let The Total no of students =100
then no of faculty = 15
no of student =85
let p no of student left
so , 100-p=50*100/100
p=50 students left
so, No of student left /total no of student = 35/85=7/17
then no of faculty = 15
no of student =85
let p no of student left
so , 100-p=50*100/100
p=50 students left
so, No of student left /total no of student = 35/85=7/17

50/85 = 10/17 when simplified.
