I appreciate the reply, but it is NOT what I asked for...

I WANT TO SOLVE FOR THE MISSIG VALUE OF WEIGHT

I have BMI and height

Hope others can read the problem first..

Sorry;


Deleted my post. I thought you could use the formula to test solving for parts.  Maybe something like w=floor((BMI*(h*h))/703.0704)

Maybe should have pulled up "we don't help you with your homework".

Beginning with height in inches, convert this number to meters, then multiply it by itself. Next, multiply this result by the BMI pct. for the answer of weight in kilograms. Lastly, convert kilograms to pounds.

For example

78 inches is converted to 1.981 meters, then squared is equal to 3.924, then multiplied by a BMI percent of 29 is equal to 113.8 kilograms and lastly converted to pounds is 249...

Yeah, I need to go on a diet... ;)
