To calculate ideal METs, we can use the expression: Researchers recommend that a person reach approximately 85% of his or her MET when exercising. Calculate 85% of the ideal MET for a 60-yr-old woman. Then refer to the following table. What activity can the woman do that is approximately this value? 

A. 8.1; Swimming
B. 6.885; Cycling
C. 6.885; Skiing
