The fraction of their student loan will be left to spend is half of their loan.

A number expressed quotient, in which numerator is divided by denominator is called a fraction.

Let the loan amount be $100.

Expenses for food is given that two fifths of their loan

i.e.

= 2/5 × 100

= $40

Now,

Remaining part will be = $100- $40 = $60

So,

Expenses for travel are given that one sixth of their loan,

i.e.

= 1/6 × 60

= $10

So,

Remaining part will be = $60 - $10 = $50

Hence, the fraction of their student loan will be left to spend is half of their loan.
