Step-by-step solution
4 stepsVerify the "Height in meter squared (m²)" column for all students.
For each student, the "Height in meter squared (m²)" value is calculated by squaring their "Height (m)". All values in this column are correctly calculated and rounded to two decimal places from the "Height (m)" column. For example:
- Student 1:
- Student 3: . The table shows , which is a minor rounding difference. We will use the table's value for BMI calculation.
- Student 7:
Calculate and verify the "Body Mass Index (BMI)" column for all students.
We calculate BMI using the formula , using the "Height in meter squared (m²)" value from the table and rounding to one decimal place.
- Student 1: . (Matches table)
- Student 2: . (Matches table)
- Student 3: . (Table shows 23.6, acceptable rounding)
- Student 4: . (Table shows 25.9, acceptable rounding)
- Student 5: . (Table shows 22.3, which is incorrect. The correct BMI is 24.5)
- Student 6: . (Table shows 25.5, which is incorrect. The correct BMI is 20.2)
- Student 7: . (Matches table)
- Student 8: . (Table shows 23.6, acceptable rounding)
- Student 9: . (Matches table)
- Student 10: . (Table shows 25.5, acceptable rounding)
List the corrected BMI values for all students.
- Student 1: 24.5
- Student 2: 27.0
- Student 3: 23.7
- Student 4: 26.0
- Student 5: 24.5
- Student 6: 20.2
- Student 7: 25.5
- Student 8: 23.7
- Student 9: 20.4
- Student 10: 25.6
Determine the percentage of students who are obese.
A person is considered obese if their Body Mass Index (BMI) is 30.0 or higher.
Comparing the corrected BMI values to this criterion:- All students have a BMI less than 30.0. Number of obese students = 0 Total number of students = 10
