Answer 1

Answer:

BMI = 17,575.

Sapphron would fit the underweight category

Explanation:

BMI (Body Mass Index) is a tool used to detect cases of obesity or malnutrition, especially in studies involving large populations. You can find the index result by making an account that involves the ratio of a person's weight in pounds to their squared height. Based on this, we can calculate Sapphron's BMI:

BMI = Weight (in pounds) ÷ [Height (in inches)]² x 703

BMI= 90 pounds / (60 inches)² x703

BMI= 17,575.

According to the BMI results table, individuals with scores below 18.5 are underweight. For this reason, we can say that Sapphron is underweight.
