COMPUTATIONS:
1. BMI = w ÷ h2
BMI = 45.4kg ÷ 1.5m2
BMI = 45.4kg ÷ 2.25m
BMI = 20.2

2. BMI = w ÷ h2
BMI = 40kg ÷ 1.22m2
BMI = 40kg ÷ 1.48m
BMI = 26.9

3. BMI = (w ÷ h2) * 703

BMI = (100lbs ÷ 34in2) * 703
 BMI = (100lbs ÷ 1156in) * 703
BMI = 0.0865 *703
BMI = 60.8

4. BMI = w ÷ h2
BMI = 18.8kg ÷ 1.11m2
BMI = 18.8kg ÷ 1.23m
BMI = 15.3

5. BMI = w ÷ h2
BMI = 43.2kg ÷ 1.6m2
BMI = 43.2kg ÷ 2.56m
BMI = 16.9
