Answer:

No it is not possible, cuz 35 students would need 4.6 teachers, it is not a whole number

Explanation:

STUDENT : TEACHER

15 : 2

35 : 4.66

So according to the ratio, if we had 35 students, we would need 4.66 Teachers, but that is not possible, cuz i mean, u obviously can't cut the human into pieces and call that 0.66
