You both are saying the same thing.

IQ is defined such that both average and mean would be equal 100. The combination of sub-100 and exactly-100 would be more people than above-100, hence "most people <=100 iq".




Both average and mean, you say.


Oops, I meant both median and mean.


Frankly I have no clue what value the term "average" has after trying to follow this conversation.
