Word problem the waist to hip ratio (whr) is a ratio commonly expressed as a decimal that has been shown to be a good predictor of possible cardiovascular problems in both men and women. if kevin has a whr greater than 1, he is considered to be “high risk” for cardiovascular problems. calculate kevin’s whr with a waist measurement of 42 inches and a hip measurement 2 inches less.

1.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Waist to Hip Ratio would be the ratio of the waist measurement to the hip measurement.

The waist measurement is 42 inches and the hip measurement is 2 less; this makes the hip measurement 42-2 = 40 inches.

This makes the WHR 42/40 = 1.05.
