Body Mass Index (BMI) Calculation Formula: To find out your BMI, you only need to divide your weight in kilograms by the square of your height in meters.

BMI = WEIGHT / HEIGHT 2

The formula does not take into account the gender and age of a person, despite the fact that the BMI of men is higher than the BMI of women, and the BMI is higher in middle-aged people, and this indicator is lower in children and the elderly.
