    If we express wizards as w, we can make the equation 120=w+0.2w

    120=1.2w

    1200=12w

    100=w

    So there are 100 wizards in the magic club

    100 wizards

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since this problem is asking for how many wizards there are, we can use 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

    Final Answer: There are 100 wizards in the magic club
