Question

People enjoyed attending the concert in the park.
Twice as many men as women attended the concert.
If the total attendance was 714, how many women
attended the concert?

Answer 1

1428 would be for men and women

Answer 2

Let the number of women = X

Twice as many men atteneded so men would be 2x

Now we have X +2x = 714

Add X and 2x to get 3X

3X = 714

Divide both sides by 3:

X = 714 / 3

X = 238 women attended the concert.
