Answer:

Laura's rating is normal.

Deepak's rating is also normal

Explanation:

To calculate the BMI of Laura and Deepak, we need to divide their weight in Kilograms, by their height (in meters) squared.

To calculate Laura's BMI we first need to display her height in meters and her weight in kilograms. This will be done as follows:

  • Transforming inches to meters:

1 inch = 2.52 centimeters.

65 inches = x centimeters

x = 2.52 * 65 = 165.1 centimeters.

1 meter = 100 centimeters

X meters = 165.1 centimeters

x = 165.1 / 100 = 165 meters.

  • Pounds to kilograms:

1 Kg = 2.20 pounds

x Kg = 145 Pounds

x = 145 / 2.20 = 65.9 kg

  • Calculating Laura's BMI:

65.9 / (1.65) ^ 2 = 24   -   BMI equal to 24, classifies a person as normal in relation to their weight.

Repeating the same calculations with the weight and height of Deepak, we will have as a result:

Weight = 80.9 Kg

Height = 1.80 meters.

  • Calculating Deepak's BMI:

80.9 / 91.80) ^ 2 = 24.9     - A BMI equal to 24.9 classifies a person as normal in relation to their weight.
