Its possible to estimate the percentage of fat in the body


Solve the following problem given below:

Problem: It's possible to estimate the percentage of fat in the body by measuring the resistance of the upper leg rather than the upper arm; the calculation is similar. A person's leg measures 40cm between the knee and the hip, with an average leg diameter (ignoring bone and other poorly conducting tissue) of 12cm. A potential difference of 0.76V causes a current of 1.6mA.

Part A: What are the fractions of muscle and fat in the leg?

I need help to find the fractions of muscle and fat in the leg.
