BMI worksheet

1. Body mass index: 23.5 kg/m²

1. Change your height from centimeters to meters, because the BMI formula uses meters

   $\frac{180\text{\hspace{0.17em}cm}}{100}$$=1.8\text{\hspace{0.17em}m}$

2. Divide your weight by your height times itself. That is your BMI

   $\frac{76}{{1.8}^2}$$=23.5$

3. Round to one decimal place and see which adult category it falls in (they start at 18.5, 25, 30, 35 and 40)

   $23.5\text{→}\text{Healthy weight}$

4. Find BMI Prime by dividing by 25, the top of the healthy-weight range. A result of 1.00 sits right at that top

   $\frac{23.46}{25}$$=0.94$

5. Find the weights that give a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 at your height: multiply each limit by your height times itself

   $18.5\times {1.8}^2=59.9\text{\hspace{0.17em}kg}\text{;}24.9\times {1.8}^2=80.7\text{\hspace{0.17em}kg}$
