Question

How do I find my BMI. Weight is 120 x 703 and my hight6is 67 inches

Answer 1

To calculate your Body Mass Index (BMI), you can use the following formula:

\[
\text{BMI} = \frac{\text{weight in pounds}}{(\text{height in inches})^2} \times 703
\]

Given:
- Weight = 120 pounds × 703 = 84,360 (seems there is a misunderstanding; typically, your weight would simply be 120 pounds, not multiplied by 703)
- Height = 67 inches

Using the correct weight of 120 pounds, the calculation would be:

\[
\text{BMI} = \frac{120}{(67)^2} \times 703
\]

Now, calculate \(67^2\):
\[
67^2 = 4489
\]

Now plug that value into the BMI formula:
\[
\text{BMI} = \frac{120}{4489} \times 703
\]

Calculating the division:
\[
\frac{120}{4489} \approx 0.0267
\]

Now multiply by 703:
\[
0.0267 \times 703 \approx 18.75
\]

So, your BMI is approximately **18.8**.

### Conclusion:
- **Weight**: 120 pounds
- **Height**: 67 inches
- **BMI**: Approximately 18.8

### BMI Categories:
- Underweight: BMI less than 18.5
- Normal weight: BMI 18.5–24.9
- Overweight: BMI 25–29.9
- Obesity: BMI 30 or greater

Based on this calculation, a BMI of 18.8 would classify you as underweight.
