Answer: 2975

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A college has a student to teacher ratio of 35 to 2. (1)

Let x be the number of students attend the college.

Then, the ratio of x students to 170 teachers will be $\dfrac{x}{170}$ (2)

From (1) and (2), we have

$\dfrac{x}{170}=\dfrac{35}{2}$

Multiply 170 on both sides , we get

$x=\dfrac{35\times170}{2}=2975$

Therefore, the number of students attend the college = 2975
