How do we classify an individual as obese?*A) BMI is 18B) BMI 24C) BMI above 29D) BMI 15

We classify an individual as obese when their Body Mass Index (BMI) is above 29. So, the correct answer is C) BMI above 29.

Here are the steps to calculate BMI:

1. Measure the person's weight in kilograms (kg).
2. Measure the person's height in meters (m).
3. Calculate the BMI by dividing the weight in kilograms (kg) by the square of height in meters (m^2).

For example, if a person weighs 70 kg and is 1.75 m tall, the BMI would be 70/(1.75^2) = 22.86.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the BMI classifications are as follows:

• Underweight: BMI less than 18.5
• Normal weight: BMI 18.5–24.9
• Overweight: BMI 25–29.9
• Obesity: BMI 30 or higher

So, a BMI above 29 would be classified as obesity.
