Ask an illiterate person the same thing and they will fail badly too. Is it impossible to have intelligence without literacy? (Bonus: if so, how was writing invented?)

Yes but an illiterate person can be taught to read. Also LLMs generally fail (non-deterministically) at math in general, but humans can also be taught math.
