Question

There are 20% more goblins than wizards in magic club. There are 120 goblins in magic club.
How many wizards are in the magic club?

Answer 1

Let the number of wizards be x.
Number of goblins is
$\frac{120}{100} x = \frac{6}{5} x$
Now as per the given information,
$\frac{6}{5} x = 120 \\ \\ x = 120 \times \frac{5}{6} = 100$
Answer: There are 100 wizards in the magic club.

Answer 2

there are 120 goblins in magic club
20% more goblins than wizards..
let , the wizards x
20% more goblins in x = (x×{20/100})
= x/5
equating we get
x/5= 120
x=600
.total wizards and goblins are 600
now wizards are = 600-{120+((20/120)×100)}= 600-(120+24) = 600-144
456
