ETA: I can do those (mental math), but I don't wanna. Would break into chunks then add probably. Not too bad because 2s, 5s, and 10s are pretty easy. Just GTFO with 4s, 7s, and 9s though.

A slightly harder problem:

1. Pick any positive integer
2. If even, divide it by 2, otherwise (if odd), multiply by 3 and add 1.
3. Repeat step 2.

Does this process always reach 1?

(there won't be an answer given for this, by you, me, or anyone ITT). This is the great thing about math- it is the great humbler. All talks about intelligence, high IQ, or whatever are immediately thrown out the window with even a simply stated problem like the above.

As to the OP, a flavor of what is considered an interesting problem in math vs what is not:

Not interesting: what is 674x1137
Not interesting: what is the partial derivative of 6x^2+7xy with respect to x. (bringing this up because someone upthread mentioned calc 3).
Interesting: Is it always possible to color a map of contiguous regions with 6 colors, such that no two neighboring regions that share a border are the same color? (the answer is yes. Actually it's yes for 4 colors....but forget about that proof).

I mean if you want hard problems to solve, have at it, there is no shortage. Intelligence as concept is pretty silly though. People way overrate it on this board.

Trying to place yourself on some spatial/verbal/mathematical spectrum is daft and unintelligent.

Subjects that I have been inquisitive about, like engineering, music, interpersonal, correlate to my intelligence abilities.

Inquisitiveness comes first.

What do you mean by “super overrated”?
If you have a low IQ you’re going no where. It may be overrated in the sense that marginal difference at certain levels doesn’t matter much. Ie someone with an IQ of 120 can achieve a lot more than someone with an IQ of 125, when the former is more ambitious, conscientious etc. However, if your IQ is 90 the story is quite different.

But it's not hard to consider yourself above average intelligence, when most people are so fkn dumb and self absorbed.

Also OP, you say "above average intelligence" in the title and then "a few points shy of genius level IQ" in the next line.

What is genius level, about 160+?

Someone could be well above average @ 120 but nowhere near genius level.

Can you do math on your head? For example, can you multiply in your head 1550 x 300 and get it right in less than 30 seconds? Can you do it at all?

Can you do percentages in your head? As in, 55% of 135,000. Well?


Just wondering what you guys consider to be an "intelligent" person.
465000

74250

Wasn’t able to do the percentages one in under 30 seconds though. Took me about 2 min (admittedly I took I dipsh*t approach to solving it looking back on it now)

Both in my head though
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

i can do the first in < 5 seconds.

Second took 12 seconds.

I've seen dumb people practice hard to become calculators.

How are u measuring intelligence though, IQ/brain power?
Intelligence is generally about acquiring knowledge and applying skills, you could in theory have an IQ of 150 without any desire to acquire knowledge or apply skills, are you therefore more intelligent than someone with 110 IQ who does the latter?

Doing math in your head is very much a matter of training. Back in the days when I had a braindead job I had a period where I'd do equations in my head like 4^7, then do factorization on the answer. Now my head is totally out of training on that kind of work, however it works great on solving other logical problems like programming.

I actually did that in my head within seconds. I was told my neurologists that i have above average basic math skills like that. (srs). I'm not perfect, because i lack in some other motor functions but think looking at analytics for ages and stuff like that made me tons better at that. things like 5%'s are easy to get because 10% is super easy to get so you get 10% added or what have you then you chop that in half. if that makes sense. i didn't randomly go get tested, this was after a brain injury and they were measuring my mental *******ry after the fact.

They did tests on me in university. Something about cognitive function after abstaining from cigarettes for "a significant period of time". My cognitive function came back at genius level.

Unfortunately cognitive function is just one aspect of IQ.

I´m well above the average Iq level, but no I can´t do that. If I would focus more on math I´m sure I could do it. Well, actually I can do it, but not the difficult ones.

Does anyone else do math by like breaking it into small easily multiplied numbers and adding them all together? Like 1550 x 300 would be 1000 x 300 + 500 x 300 + 50 x 300 = 465,000.
Same with percentages.
