What Is a BMI Calculator?
A BMI Calculator is a simple tool that estimates your Body Mass Index (BMI) using your height and weight. BMI is commonly used as a general screening measure to classify weight relative to height.

How Is BMI Calculated?
For metric measurements, BMI is calculated by dividing weight in kilograms by height in meters squared.
BMI = weight (kg) / height² (m²)
For imperial measurements, the calculation uses weight in pounds and height in inches with the appropriate conversion factor.
Understanding BMI Results
BMI categories provide a general way to interpret the calculated number. BMI is a screening measure and should not be considered a medical diagnosis.
- Below 18.5: Underweight
- 18.5–24.9: Normal weight
- 25.0–29.9: Overweight
- 30.0 or higher: Obesity
Individual health circumstances vary, so BMI should be considered alongside other relevant health information.
