Calculating BMI (Body Mass Index)

Question

If I'm given the following values:

Weight = 15st 9lbs Height = 5.8 ft

If we want to calculate the BMI, would it be: 33.30?

And, in the final result we do NOT put any units, right?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You either need to convert to metric units, or insert a constant as shown in Wikipedia. BMI is mass (kg)/height (m)^2
