Convert weight to kg

kg = lbs ÷ 2.20462

= 180 lbs ÷ 2.20462

= 81.65 kg

2

Convert height to cm

cm = (feet × 12 + inches) × 2.54

= (5 × 12 + 10) × 2.54

= 177.8 cm

3

BMI calculation

BMI = weight_kg ÷ height_m²

= 81.65 ÷ (1.778)² = 81.65 ÷ 3.16128

= 25.8 → Overweight

About BMI

BMI is a simple screening tool, not a diagnostic measure. It does not account for muscle mass, bone density, fat distribution, age, or sex. Athletes and very muscular individuals often score "Overweight" or "Obese" despite being healthy. Always consult a healthcare provider for a complete health assessment.
