A
Normal weight
B
Overweight
C
Underweight
D
Obese
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand what BMI (Body Mass Index) represents: it is a measure that uses height and weight to categorize individuals into weight status categories such as underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese.
Recall the standard BMI categories: Underweight is BMI less than 18.5, Normal weight is BMI between 18.5 and 24.9, Overweight is BMI between 25 and 29.9, and Obese is BMI 30 or higher.
Compare Natalie's BMI value of 26 to these categories to determine which range it falls into.
Since 26 is greater than 25 but less than 30, identify that this places Natalie in the 'Overweight' category.
Conclude that based on the BMI classification, Natalie is best described as overweight.
