Solution
The 120mm Hg (systolic) and 80mm Hg (diastolic) is considered as a normal blood pressure. The condition where the blood pressure of a person is above persistently 120/80mm Hg or slightly above, it is termed as hypertension. The risk of cardiovascular disease increases progressively above 120/80 mm Hg.
