Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The BMI formula is BMI = weight(kg) / (height(m))^2 or BMI = (weight(lbs) / (height(in))^2) x 703. 
Converting the given height of 5'5" to inches = 65 inches. 
Converting the given weight of 125 lbs to kg = 56.7 kg (rounded off to one decimal place). 
Using the second version of the formula, BMI = (125 / (65^2)) x 703 = 20.8 (rounded off to one decimal place). 
Therefore, the approximate BMI is 21, which falls under the category of normal weight.
