A man is 6' 4" tall, and weighs 226 pounds. The ideal weight chart indicates that his maximum desirable weight is 204 pounds. What percentage overweight is this man?

Set up a proportion where the ratios must be equal.

=

This can be solved by cross-multiplying:

200×𝑋=2×20

200𝑋=40

Now, solve for X by dividing both sides by 200:

𝑋= ​= 0.2

Thus, the value of X is 0.2.

To determine which option represents the largest amount, consider the values in a comparable format:

A. 73.9% (equivalent to 0.739)

B. 16.25 (a whole number, clearly more than any of the percentages if you consider their decimal forms)

C. 95% (equivalent to 0.95, which is the largest among the percentages)

D. 1.25% (equivalent to 0.0125)

B 16.25 is clearly the largest number here, as it surpasses all the percentages when converted into decimal or whole number forms.

To multiply fractions;

1. Multiply the numerators together:

39×6=234

2. Multiply the denominators together:

54×13=702

Thus, the product of the fractions is​.

Next, simplify​:

1. Calculate the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 234 and 702. Both numbers are divisible by 234:

234÷234=1

702÷234=3

The simplified product of the fractions is​.

Thus, the correct answer from the provided choices is: D 1/3

1-liter equals 1000 milliliters.

Given 3 liters, the calculation will be:

3liters×1000milliliters/liter

=3000milliliters

Thus, 3 liters of fluid contains 3000 milliliters.
