The community leader of a certain town organized a cleaning day event where community members were to be involved in collecting trash inside the town. Out of 2000 community members involved in the cleaning process, 30% were adult men. If there were twice as many adult women as adult men in the event, and the rest were children, calculate the total number of children involved in the cleaning event.

If the number of adult men involved in the cleaning process was 30% of the community members, there were 30 / 100 * 2000 = 600 adult men at the event. There were also twice as many adult women as adult men in the event, a total of 2 * 600 = 1200 women. The total number of adults in the event was 1200 + 600 = 1800. If the rest of the people at the cleaning event were children, there were 2000 - 1800 = 200 children at the event.
Thus, the answer is 200.
