The client's BMI is 29.50.

To work out your BMI:

1. divide your weight in kilograms (kg) by your height in meters(m)

2. then divide the answer by your height again to get your BMI.

Answer : The client's body mass index is, [tex]0.03lb/inch^2[/tex]

Explanation :

The formula of body mass index is:

[tex]BMI=\frac{w}{h^2}[/tex]

where,

BMI = body mass index

w = weight of a person = 150 lb

h = height of a person = 5 ft 7 inch = 67 inches   (1 ft = 12 inch)

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the client's body mass index.

[tex]BMI=\frac{150lb}{(67inch)^2}[/tex]

[tex]BMI=0.03lb/inch^2[/tex]

Therefore, the client's body mass index is, [tex]0.03lb/inch^2[/tex]
