Answer: 113

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum heart rate formula says to subtract your age from 220.

220 - age = maximum heart rate

220 - 30 = 190

Since Holly wants to work out at 70% intensity, we will find 70% of 190. Please note that a percent divided by 100 becomes a decimal.

190 * 0.7 = 113
