Which of the following blood pressure measurements would be considered high?

130/68
122/76
142/72
120/80

The correct answer is: 130/68

The normal blood pressure range is typically between 120/80 and 129/84, so any measurement that falls above or equal to 130/68 would be considered high. Options B and D have diastolic (bottom number) readings within the normal range. Option C has a systolic (top number) reading that falls within the prehypertension range (between 120-139), but its diastolic reading is high. Therefore, option A is the best answer for a high blood pressure measurement as it falls within the high blood pressure range (equal to or above 130/80).
