I assume this is a reference from the movie 'The Fifth Element'.

I don't see how I did on the questions. A lot of them had me wondering how is this relevant to IQ?

(29,322 posts)I was thinking to myself c=3 and g=7 how do I get to 4? Couldn't do 3-7 or 3 x 7 and come up with 4 so I thought 'screw it' and guessed.

(2,268 posts)CG = 4, so C = 1 and G = 4 (or C = 4 and G = 1)
L and T are two different distinct numbers, and not the same numbers as C or G. So for LT (L x T), the answer can't be 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 19, etc, because no two distinct integers (that aren't a 1) multiplied will equal them; by the process of elimination, LT can be 6, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 15, 21, 24, 27, 30, 35, 40, 45, 42, 48, 54, 56, 72, because the numbers 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, when any two are multiplied, will equal them.

(2,768 posts)Each of the letters corresponds to a number a-1 b-2 c-3 d-4 e-5 f-6 g-7
L-12, T-20
It looks like multiplication but I figure it's actually subtraction
7-3=4 and 20-12=8
I see some of the other answers that are work out as well. It would have been nice if they gave a work through after answering or at least let you know they are trying to make you break yourself with trickery.

Anyway, I had my IQ tested in high school and again in college. The two scores differed by 1 point, so the number is probably pretty accurate. So 55 years ago I was above average, but lately, I've been getting a lot dumber.

(16,858 posts)I first had my IQ tested at an early age and then again in college as an excercise. Here's the thing that is so freaking frustrating to my brain...SHOW ME THE CORRECT ANSWERS TO THE MINDBINDERS DAMNIT! I wish I had taken notes on some of the questions to check my work...yeah, I know, nerd checking in here!

(11,686 posts)I have ADHD and a learning disability and have never done well on my IQ tests. I guessed at some of those. In fact I did not even try because the moment I saw them I knew I could not figure them out much less understand what they were in the first place. Yup, as bogus as it gets.

People think it's higher because I've always read a lot. I also make up it for it by having, what I think, is an above-average emotional intelligence. Basically, I think I come across a lot smarter than I really am. My spatial intelligence is horrible. I get lost easily and have a difficult time with directions. I think the spatial impairment inhibits my math ability.
