Which value represents the obese female fat percentage?

• A. 30
• B. 35
• C. 40
• D. 45

Answer: (B)

Understanding body fat percentage helps classify levels of body fat, including obesity. In this context, obesity for females is defined by a higher fat percentage, and the chart used by this assessment sets the obesity threshold at 35 percent. So 35 percent is the value that represents the obese category for an adult woman in this framework. A value around 30 percent would fall below that boundary and be considered non-obese or in a lower category, while a value like 40 percent would also indicate a high level of body fat, but the stated cutoff point used to designate obesity here is 35 percent.
