Suppose that an individual has a body fat percentage of \( 14.2 \% \) and weighs 153 pounds. How many pounds of her weight is made up of fat? Round your answer to the nearest tenth. \( \square \) pounds

To find out how many pounds of fat are in the individual’s weight, you can use the formula: \[ \text{Fat Weight} = \text{Total Weight} \times \left(\frac{\text{Body Fat Percentage}}{100}\right) \] Substituting in the values: \[ \text{Fat Weight} = 153 \, \text{pounds} \times \left(\frac{14.2}{100}\right) = 153 \times 0.142 = 21.726 \] Rounding to the nearest tenth, the individual has approximately \( 21.7 \) pounds of body fat.
