140/90 is the cut off for normal. However a lot of other factors also needs to be considered. Somebody who had a bp of 200/120 before and now having 160/100 obviously is nothing to worry.

120/80 is normal
121-129/80 - elevated bp
130-139/80-89 - stage 1 hypertension
>140/90 - stage 2 hypertension
Treatment for any of these is initially to change lifestyle....later needs further treatment.
