What is Tania's BMR?
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a 1801.5 calories
- b 1705.0 calories
- c 1595.0 calories
- d 1407.0 calories
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: d 1407.0 calories
Tania is a girl. 655 + (9.6 × 60) + (1.8 × 150) − (4.7 × 20) = 655 + 576 + 270 − 94 = 1407.

- b 1705.0 calories: “1705.0 calories” does not fit here. Tania is a girl. 655 + (9.6 × 60) + (1.8 × 150) − (4.7 × 20) = 655 + 576 + 270 − 94 = 1407.
- c 1595.0 calories: “1595.0 calories” does not fit here. Tania is a girl. 655 + (9.6 × 60) + (1.8 × 150) − (4.7 × 20) = 655 + 576 + 270 − 94 = 1407.
