Question

IQ of a person is given by the formula

IQ = `(MA)/(CA) xx100`

Where MA is mental age and CA is chronological age. If 80 ≤ IQ ≤ 140 for a group of 12 years old children, find the range of their mental age.

Solution

It is given that for a group of 12 years old children, 80 ≤ IQ ≤ 140   …(i)

For a group of 12 years old children, CA = 12 years

IQ = `("MA")/12 xx 100`

Putting this value of IQ in (i), we obtain

`80 < ("MA")/12  xx 100  ≤ 140`

⇒ `80  xx 12/100  ≤ "MA" ≤ 140 xx 12/100` 

⇒ 9.6 ≤ MA ≤ 16.8

Thus, the range of mental age of the group of 12 years old children is 9.6 ≤ MA ≤ 16.8.
