Which of the following values represents the obese female fat percentage?

• A. 25
• B. 30
• C. 35
• D. 45

Answer: (C)

Body fat percentage is used to classify health and fitness levels, with a clear range where obesity begins for women. In many common reference charts, the obesity category for females starts in the mid-30s percent. Values in the lower ranges (around athletic, fitness, or acceptable) are below that threshold, while a much higher value also indicates obesity but represents a more extreme level. So the value in the mid-30s best represents the obese category for females, which is why this option is the right match.
