Answer:

Final Answer: There are 100 wizards in the magic club

Explanation:

Since this question is asking for how many wizards are in magic club, we can represent wizards with the variable "w"

w = wizards

Next, we know that there are 120 goblins and that there are 20% more goblins than wizards in magic club.

120 = w + 20%w

120 = w + 0.2w

(percentages are just the percent/100)

120 = 1.2w

1200 = 12w

100 = w
