Body Mass Index Table
Body Mass Index Table
Body mass index (BMI) uses a mathematical formula that takes into account both a person’s height and weight. BMI equals a person’s weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared (BMI=kg/m²). To determine BMI, multiply your weight in pounds by 704, then divide by the square of your height in inches. For example, if you weight 130 pounds and are 5’4” (64”) tall, your BMI is (130 X 704) / (64 X 64) = 22.3. (If you use the metric system, divide your weight in kilograms by the square of your height in meters.)
The table below has already done the math and metric conversions. To use the table, find the appropriate height in the left-hand column. Move across the row to the given weight. The number at the top of the column is the BMI for that height and weight.
