There are two ways of calculating BMI, as shown below. Metric System Formula BMI = weight in kilograms / height in meters squared If you only know your height in centimeters, then simply divide your height by 100 to determine your height in meters. For example, if you are 170cm tall, then divide 170 by 100, which equals 1.7m. As an example, using this formula, if you weigh 75 kg and are 1.7 m tall, your BMI is 75 / 1.7², which equals 26.0 when rounded to the nearest tenth. Standard System Formula BMI = (weight in pounds / height in inches squared) x 703 For example, if you weigh 175 lb. and are 5 feet, 6 inches, or 66 inches, tall your BMI equals (175 / 66²) x 703, or 28.2 when rounded to the nearest tenth.
