To find out how many puzzles 1 student would complete, you can divide the total number of puzzles by the total number of students:

\[ \text{Puzzles per student} = \frac{\text{Total puzzles}}{\text{Total students}} = \frac{80}{15} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \frac{80}{15} \approx 5.3333 \]

Rounding to the nearest tenth, you get:

\[ 5.3 \]

So, the answer is 5.3.
