Answer 2

BMI = 703w/h²

You're given the inputs , so to find the BMI, it's just plug-and-solve:

BMI = 703(200)/(72²)
BMI = 140600 /.5184
BMI = 27.1 (rounded to tenths)

If you want to find the weight required to get a specific BMI, then plug in the known values and solve for what y ou're looking for. In this case: w

26 = 703w/(72²)
26 = 703w/5184
134784 = 703w
w = 191.7

So he's have to lose 8.3 lbs (200 - 191.7)
