BMI = Mass (kg)
_______
Height (m)2
or be lazy and use this site https://www.bupa.co.uk/health-information/tools-calculators/bmi-calculator
Use the information in the table to calculate each character’s
BMI and then answer the questions below…
Which characters are underweight?
Which characters are normal?
Which characters are overweight or obese?
Have another look at McBain. Why might BMI not be an accurate
measurement of how healthy he is (hint – does he LOOK like he has a weight
problem?)?
