You can put this solution on YOUR website! Ideal waist size. According to Dr. Aaron R. Folsom of the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, you maximum ideal waist size is directly proportional to your hip size.
------------
ws = k (hs)
--------------
For a woman with 40-inch hips, the maximum ideal waist size is 32 inches.
Solve for K:
32 = k(40)
k = 4/5
Therefore equation is ws = (4/5)(hs)
--------------
What is the maximum ideal waist size for a woman with 35-inch hips?
ws = (4/5)(35)
ws = 4*7
ws = 28 inches
