Little (IQ) help!

Factual Questions
1

I recently took one of those online IQ tests. (My numerologically interpretted score was 5.) There was one question that I still can’t figure out. I have prepared my ego for humiliation, so break out your scorn dripping roll eyes and help fight a little ignorance.

The question:
Johnny likes 400 but he doesn’t like 300. He likes 100 but not 99. He likes 3600 but not 3700.
Which number will Johnny like?
[list=a][li]900[]1000[]11001200 [/list][/li]
I think I know the answer (I couldn’t wade through the ad bog to get to the guide) but, oddly enough, I don’t know why.

900

400 = 20 * 20
100 = 10 * 10
3600 = 60 * 60

and of course 900 = 30*30

Yup…

saw the 400 and 100 and said “he likes squares.”

I’ve always been surprised that I can even pass those tests.
I score well on the verbal, but of the math always throws me. I don’t seem to recognize numerical relationships unless they’re spelled out. (NPI)

What the heck does that mean? Somebody is applying numerology to Intelligence Quotients now?

6

Why not? One’s about as useful as the other, so why not combine the two? :slight_smile:

They’re hip.

Perhaps Johnny likes a number X if and only if X mod 13 > 8, in which case b is the correct answer.

Perhaps Johnny likes a number X if and only if X is on a certain list. :rolleyes:
