Calculate the BMI for your patient who is 5ft 6 inches tall and weighs 205 pounds. s Solve this by measuring the weight in pounds and converting this to kilograms (1 lb= 0.45 kg). Then measure height in inches and convert this to meters squared (multiply inches *2.54 cm, divide this number by 100 cm/m, multiply this final number by itself to get meters squared). Then the final step is to take weight in kilograms and divide it by height in meters squared.
