    For the first question, Turn 30 percent into a decimal. This will be 0.3. Now, Multiply 0.3 by 1060, which gives us 318. Finally, subtract 1060-318=742.

    He splits up 100 and 100 to make them 100% each and then adds 20% to one side which is odd because it technically equals 120% for the goblins if kept apart. While yes, technically speaking it is 20% more than the other side, the way he wrote the question you would think 220 is 100% and split it 60/40 which is 20 percent more for one side (132/88). I believe this is the more accurate method to calculate the problem and the way most people would do it if asked because you would be calculating the total sum to 100%, not 120%. The ratio if done his way becomes 55% and 45% because he added %20 more of something to the total, diluting the initial value he started with, making the difference now only 10% and not 20%

    In the second problem I set it up as a 40% Wizards / 60% Goblins ratio (because the difference between 40% and 60% would be 20% and 40%+60%=100%) However when solving for 60% from 220 (100% )I got a different answer???
