Explanation

IQ scores are standardized so that the average (mean) score for a population is always 100, with a standard deviation of typically 15. This is a fundamental property of IQ testing - by definition, 100 represents average intelligence for the reference population. Scores above or below 100 indicate above or below average performance.
