Question

calculate BMI of a person if weight=40 kg and height =154cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

BMI is also commonly known as Body Mass Index which provides health information of an individual based on his/her height and weight.

Formula for calculating BMI:

$\implies BMI = \dfrac{ \text{Weight in kg}}{\text{Height in m}^2}$

Given Information:

• Weight = 40 kg
• Height = 154 cm = 1.54 m

Substituting in the formula we get,

$\implies BMI = \dfrac{40}{(1.54)^2}\\\\\implies BMI = \dfrac{40}{2.3716}\\\\\implies BMI = \textbf{16.86}$

Therefore the BMI of the person is 16.86.

Additional Information:

• Healthy person has a BMI range from 18.5 to 24.9
• If a person has BMI of value less than 18.5, he is considered to be underweight and needs to increase fat in his diet.
• If a person has a BMI of value greater than 24.9, he is considered to be overweight and needs to ensure intake of fibers in his diet.
• If a person has BMI of value greater than 30, he is considered Obese and needs to follow strict Diet mentioned by Dietician.

Answer 2

Solutions:

BMI = Weight in kg/ height in m²

weight = 40kg

height = 154cm = 1.54m

BMI = 40/1.54²

= 40/2.371

= 16.8
