<em>The answer is</em> <em>nearly 172 million people</em>.


National Center for Health Statistics reported in 2005 that the American Adult Population had a proportion of:

  • 32,7% Overweight (BMI > 25),
  • 34,3% Obese (30<BMI<40)
  • 5,9% Extremely obese (BMI>40)

BMI = Body Mass Index

If we add all of them we obtain 72,9%

The total population in 2005 in USA was 295.500.000 people

The percentage of adult people (>15 years old) was 80%.

If we multiply:    0,729 x 0,80 x 295.500.000 people

we obtain a resulting value of  172.335.600 people.

What role do small claims courts play in the legal system?
vaieri [72.5K]
It's the practical-ish solution for individuals seeking monetary remedies too low in proportion to attorney fees, and requiring more legally binding enforcement measures than those provided by mediation/arbitration. The ish suffix indicates that it's not the democratized "people's court" that everyone thinks it is... We've found that it's not very useful for low-income, immigrant or shy folks which either don't feel confident enough, or are so ensnared by the legal system that they never think small claims court a viable solution for their problems. 
<span>It also plays a great entertainment role, apparently, given the popularity of daytime shows such as that of the assertive Mrs. Judge Judy.</span>

MAVERICK [17]

Answer: (A) Reduce capacity
