Problem 6
Calculate the BMI for an individual weighing 68 kg with a height of 170 cm, and state the BMI category.

25.4 kg/m^2 — Overweight, which would be the result if you mistakenly used height in centimeters without converting to meters
B
23.5 kg/m^2 — Healthy weight
C
27.0 kg/m^2 — Overweight, calculated by dividing by a wrong squared height
D
20.1 kg/m^2 — Lower than expected due to assuming the person is very lean
