In the United States, most people measure weight in pounds and height in feet and inches. When weight W is measured in pounds and height h is measured in inches, the BMI formula is BMI = 703W/h². Identify the product that produces the English-to-metric conversion factor of 703. A person with a BMI between 25.0 and 30.0 is considered overweight. If a person is 6'11" tall, for what range of mass mmin ≤ m ≤mmax will he be considered overweight? Mmin = mmax = kg kg
