Answer:
111
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the student to faculty ratio at a small college is 17:3.
Let number of students and faculty members are 17x and 3x respectively.
It is given that total number of students and faculty is 740.
[tex]17x+3x=740[/tex]
[tex]20x=740[/tex]
Divide both sides by 20.
[tex]x=37[/tex]
Number of student [tex]=17\times 37=629[/tex]
Number of faculty members [tex]=3\times 37=111[/tex]
Therefore, there are 111 faculty members at the college.
