IQ is IQ. But the question the OP posted is about the _math_, as he
stated in the subject. Also, the way it is formulated in the message
body, it is about the math and math alone.

I think the OP knows perfectly well that the IQ is not just about the
math, which is why he made a specific effort to extract and isolate just
the math part of the problem in his question.
