If there are two women for every man, how many women are there, when the number is 350. Please show your work.

That would give part-women and part-men
To the nearest whole number 117 men and 233 women. 350 % 3 = 116 1/2
117+117=233

1 man ... 2 women
350 men ... x women = ?

If you would like to know how many women are there if the number of men is 350, you can calculate this using the following steps:

1 * x = 2 * 350
x = 2 * 350
x = 700 women

The correct result would be 700 women.
