Formula

BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height (m)² — imperial: BMI = 703 × weight (lb) ÷ height (in)²

How to calculate

  1. 1Use metric units (kg and m) or the imperial form directly — both give the same number.
  2. 2Square your height: multiply it by itself (1.75 m → 3.0625).
  3. 3Divide your weight by the squared height (70 ÷ 3.0625 = 22.9).
  4. 4Compare the result to the ranges: under 18.5 underweight, 18.5–24.9 normal, 25–29.9 overweight, 30+ obese.

A person weighing 160 lb at 70 in: 703 × 160 ÷ 4,900 = 22.9 — the same BMI.
