Extra credit if you know this equation: BMI = (Height in inches)(height in inches) ____________________________ X 703 Weight in pounds BODY MASS INDEX Not the most reliable method but one method to tell if someone is overweight or obese.

The most reliable is HYDROSTATIC WEIGHING For your HOMEWORK: find your BMI by googling BMI calculator and putting in height and weight.
