You need to rephrase the question to get a meaningful answer. The average IQ is 100 and only a small percent have exactly that IQ. Most, however, are within the range of 85-100.
That will be close to 90 percent of the population. Only about four percent would be above and below that area.
About 98% of the population.
Sure. IQ is a score of mental ability. The "average" is 100, but the scale is not linear, like on a ruler. The span of IQ scores from 85 to 115 accounts for about 68% of the population, the span from 70 to 130 accounts for about 95% of the population. If you have an IQ of 116, you're *just* in the (95-68) = 27% of the population. Anyone with a score below 70, or with a score above 130, is in a rare group that are only about 5% of the total population.
IQ means Intelligence Quota - how smart you are. Take a Mensa IQ Test online. 100 is average - 150 is extremely intelligent. Below 100 needs improvement.

IQ (Intelligence Quotient) is relatively stable throughout the lifespan. The average IQ for any age person is 100. Sixty-eight percent of the population have an IQ ranging from 85-115. The graph below will illustrate IQ scores in a typical population.
By definition a 96 IQ is normal. IQ test results are adjusted for age so that an half the population will score above 100 and half below.
That will be close to 90 percent of the population. Only about four percent would be above and below that area.
About three percent.
An IQ of 86 is not great. It is a below average IQ. Average IQ is 100.
First the only thing that an IQ test measures is the ability to do IQ tests. 100 is considered average IQ.
It is misleading to say that 50% are above and 50% are below 100. The correct way to say it would be to say that 50% are at or below 100% and 50% are at or above 100. "Average" doesn't mean that number occurs most in the set of data. It means that is the middle of the set of data. Mode is the word that describes the number that occurs most in a set of data.
The average human IQ is 100, anything above or below is separated linearly.
