Formula and Calculations

Kilograms and meters (or
centimeters)
Formula: weight (kg) / [height (m)]2
With the metric system, the formula for BMI is weight in kilograms divided by
height in meters squared. Since height is commonly measured in centimeters,
divide height in centimeters by 100 to obtain height in meters.
Example: Weight = 68 kg, Height = 165 cm (1.65 m)
Calculation: 68 ÷ (1.65)2= 24.98
Pounds and inches
Formula: weight (lb) / [height (in)]2
703
Calculate BMI by dividing weight in pounds (lbs) by height in inches (in)
squared and multiplying by a conversion factor of 703.
Example: Weight = 150 lbs, Height = 5'5" (65")
Calculation: [150 ÷ (65)2]
703 = 24.96
