The 140.68 seconds
Memoriad 2024 ran from 6 to 10 November in the United Arab Emirates. In the additions discipline, competitors work through sums of ten-digit numbers against the clock, and the ranking is the raw time. World Mental Calculation's results report put Priyansh second at 140.68 seconds, behind Jeonghee Lee of South Korea on 122.36 and ahead of Tambe Vighnesh Vijay of India on 182.72.
The margin is worth reading precisely. Roughly eighteen seconds separated first from second, and forty-two separated second from third. In a field that the results report describes as having more than a hundred participants, that places him inside a very narrow band at the top of the discipline.
The largest event at the meet
Additions was the biggest single competition at Memoriad 2024. The other calculation events drew smaller fields: 57 in the multiplication of eight-digit numbers, 38 in square roots of six-digit numbers, 27 in division by five-digit numbers, 57 in calendar dates and 66 in the flash anzan marathon.
That matters for weighing a silver medal. The addition event is the entry point of competitive mental calculation and therefore the most crowded, which makes a podium place in it a result against the deepest field on the schedule rather than against a specialist handful.
Who else was in the room
Memoriad combines mental calculation with memory disciplines; alongside the 121 calculators, the report counts nearly 30 competitors entered only in memory events. The dominant calculator of the week was Shashank Jain of India, who won three events and, according to the same report, set world records in square roots and division.
Jeonghee Lee, the man who beat Priyansh, won two events and is described in the results as 61 years old. Kaloyan Geshev of Bulgaria took the division title; Jay Baldiya Jain of India won the calendar-dates event with 125 correct dates in 51.24 seconds. Indian competitors appear at or near the top of most of the calculation disciplines, and the additions podium alone carried two of them.
What is documented — and what is not
The record available here is narrow and precise: one competitor, one event, one time, one age. World Mental Calculation states that Priyansh was 13. It does not give a date of birth, which is why any birth year attached to him is an inference from that age and the November 2024 date rather than a published fact.
Nothing in the source names his home city, his school, his coach, or the training method behind the result. No earlier or later competition placings for him appear in the material used here, and no interview with him has been located. Those are gaps in the public record, not facts about him.

Passer le test de QI →How rare the discipline is
Competitive mental calculation is a small world. Memoriad, staged irregularly rather than annually, is one of its flagship meetings, and 121 calculators from 20 countries represents a substantial share of the people who compete seriously at this level anywhere.
The practical point is that a teenager placing second there is not measured against classmates but against adults who have trained for decades, including the 61-year-old who beat him. That is the context in which 140.68 seconds is meaningful, and it is the only claim the source supports.
