Question

what is the normal blood pressure reading for adults? 120/80 mmhg 140/90 mmhg 100/60 mmhg 160/100 mmhg

Explanation:

Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). The first number (systolic) represents the pressure when the heart beats, and the second number (diastolic) represents the pressure when the heart is at rest between beats. A normal blood pressure reading for adults is generally considered to be around 120/80 mmHg. 140/90 mmHg is often the cutoff for hypertension (high blood pressure). 100/60 mmHg might be on the lower side (hypotension for some, but normal for others depending on individual health). 160/100 mmHg is significantly high and indicates severe hypertension.

Answer:

120/80 mmHg
