Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 47
Body mass index (BMI) is widely used to assess appropriate weight for height using the following formula: BMI = weight (kg)/ height2 (meters). 145 divided by 1.752 = 47.3469. When rounded to the nearest whole number, the client's BMI is 47.

Answer to Question 2
