1. What is BMI to Weight Calculation?

This calculator determines a person's weight based on their Body Mass Index (BMI) and height. It's useful for setting target weights when you know your desired BMI.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• \( BMI \) — Body Mass Index in kg/m²
• \( Height \) — Height in meters

Explanation: The formula rearranges the standard BMI equation to solve for weight instead of BMI.

3. Importance of Weight Calculation

Details: Knowing your target weight for a specific BMI can help with weight management goals, fitness planning, and health assessments.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter BMI in kg/m² (typically between 18.5-24.9 for healthy range) and height in meters. All values must be valid (BMI > 10, height between 0.5-2.5 meters).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: Generally, 18.5-24.9 is considered healthy, 25-29.9 overweight, and 30+ obese, though individual factors may vary.

Q2: How accurate is this calculation?
A: It's mathematically precise, but actual healthy weight may vary based on muscle mass, body composition, and other factors.
