Obesity class II · 170 cm (5 ft 7 in), 115 kg (254 lb)

How it is calculated

BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height (m)² = 115 ÷ (1.70 × 1.70) = 115 ÷ 2.8900 = 39.8.

At 170 cm the healthy-weight range (BMI 18.5–24.9) is 53.5–72.0 kg; 115 kg is 43.0 kg above the top of the healthy range. BMI 22 – the middle of the range – would be 63.6 kg.
