Not an IQ test, most of it is general knowledge.

Florence McKenna Hiscock,
We solve equations by a worldwide standard order of operations.
We solve inside parentheses or brackets first, followed by exponents/orders next. Then we multiply and/or divide. Since these two functions carry equal weight, we perform these functions in the order they appear in the equation from left to right. We don't necessarily do division before multiplication. The order we do these functions is determined by where they appear in the equation from left to right.
Then we do addition and subtraction in the order they appear in the equation from left to right because these two functions are also of equal weight.
This equation is:
8 + 2 ÷ (4 - 2) = ?
Here we solve within the brackets first yielding:
8 + 2 ÷ 2 = ?
Then we multiply and or divide from left to right. This yields:
8 + 1 = ? Then we add yielding the answer of 9.
The answer is correct as given.
I hope that helps.

Not difficult questions. Mensa measures intelligent, not QuizzClub questions.

Michael Krol, maths has always had brackets .one can not choose to ignore them. Tell me what are WOKE brackets.

cdowdy aks,
Simple do the bracket first, 4-2=2. Then do division 2 / 2 = 1, then do 8 + 1 = 9
8 + 2 / (4-2)

8/10…. someone please explain how 8+2 (10) + (4-2) 2 = 9 and not 12???

jcdangusa,
You did the addition before the division. That was your mistake.
4 - 2 = 2 Brackets first
2/2 = 1 Division is next
8 + 1 = 9 Addition is the final operation in this equation.
9 is the correct answer.

Alejo Planchart,
All the math questions were correct.

This test is designed to yield flattering results Together, these few questions in no way measure IQ.

8/10 I made a silly mistakes, and one question wasn’t right.
