Question

Dan weighs 205 pounds but is only 5 feet 8 inches tall. Evan is 6 feet tall. How much would you expect Evan to weigh if they have the same height/weight ratio?

Answer 1

217.1 lbs

Explanation:

I did set up cross multiplication using the height/weight ratio.

68/205 and 72/?.

72*205=14760

14760/68=217.05

Then I rounded to get 217.1 lbs
