A person's intelligence quotient (IQ) is determined by multiplying the quotient of his or her mental age and chronological age by 100. Find the mental age of a person 5 years old whose IQ is 160.
----
IQ = (mental age/chronage)(100)
----
160 = (mental age/5)(100)
---
1.6 = mental age/5
---
mental age = 8
