Answer:

The client's current body fat in pounds is
40\\lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Present weight of male client
= 200\\lb

Percentage of body fat in the male client
= 20\\%

Future goal of body fat percentage
= 15\\%

Current body fat in pounds


= \\(Percentage of body fat in the male client )
*\\(Present weight of male client)

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

Current body fat in pounds


= 20\\% of
200\\ lb


= (20)/(100) * 200\\


= 40 lb\\
