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

Hello! A way we could solve this equation is to divide 714 by three and then multiply the quotient by 2 to get the number of men that attended. 714/3 is 238. There were 238 women that attended the concert. 238 * 2 is 476. 476 + 238 = 714. There. There were 476 men that attended the concert.

Answer 2

714 divided by 3 equals 238. 238 plus 238 equals 476 (477 men-double the women). 476 plus 238 equals 714 (total).

Answer:
238 women
476 men
