Part 1
The following procedure represent the method I used in used to arrive at my Body Mass
Index (BMI). It is a detailed mathematical formula but very direct for one easily go through. All
units must be made in such a way that height should be measured in meters while weight should
be in converted to kilograms is given in pounds. The first step is to list all quantities (my weight
and height) but using the above units (i.e. meters and kilograms).
Weight = 60kgs
Height = 1.65 meters
𝐵𝑀𝐼 = 𝑊𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 ÷ 𝐻𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 2
𝐵𝑀𝐼 = 60 ÷ 1.652 = 22.03𝐾𝑔/𝑚2
Body mass index is ranked based on the following ranges:
Healthy weight: 18.5 – 24.9
Overweight: 25 – 29.9
Obesity: above 30
From the above analysis/classification, I would conclude that my BMI of 22.03 falls
within the healthy class. The BMI is used to measure the amount of fats in our bodies to help our
medics in determining possible chances that we are experiencing a healthy life. It is a signal of
how healthy or malnourished one is...
