No math!!
I understand the theory behind more complicated math, or pattern recognition, but this is as fundamental as "What is Pi to the 4th decimal", "How do you calculate the area of a Circle / Sphere / Cylinder", "Which of these is a Prime Number" and the ever popular / poorly written "a brick weighs 2kg and a half brick"... I think the rule of "no math" is far too rigid, and contrary to the fundamental basis of the quiz (should be able to be answered by anyone of high school education). Math is language-free, taught the same way in every school, and is an integral part of any IQ test. And is standard in contest as a "skill testing question"
I just think this absolute should have some grey area in it.
1+1 = Bad
(9+8-7) x (6/3) = Good
9+8-7x6/3 = Bad
Root of 81 = Good
