Formula & Calculation Logic

Calculates the ratio of body mass to squared height in accordance with WHO Technical Report Series 854. Normal adult weight corresponds to a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m².

Metric: BMI = weight (kg) / [height (m)]^2 | Imperial: BMI = 703 * weight (lbs) / [height (in)]^2
