Question

Approximately 55%of an adult female body weight is water if a woman body contains 38 kg of water what is the woman's total weight

Answer 1

Answer: 69kg

Explanation:

Let the total weight of the woman be represented by x. Based on the information given, we can derive an equation which will be:

55% of x = 38kg

55/100 × x = 38kg

0.55 × x = 38kg

0.55x = 38kg

Divide through by 0.55

x = 38kg/0.55

x = 69.09099

x = 69kg

Therefore, the woman's total weight is 69kg.
