    140

    Explanation:

    William Stern, the German psychologist, devised the fundamental definition of intelligence quotient or IQ in 1912. He defined IQ as a ratio of an estimated mental age and actual age by multiplying it with 100. The equation can be reached thus:

    100 * (mental age/actual age).

    In case of Sara, her actual age is 10 and her mental age is 14. Therefore, her IQ is equal to 100 x 14/10 = 140
