Quick Mental Math for Body Weight
Kg to Lbs: Multiply by 2, then add 10% of that result.
Example: 80 kg → 80×2 = 160 → +16 = 176 lbs (exact: 176.37 ✓)
Lbs to Kg: Divide by 2, then subtract 10% of that result.
Example: 154 lbs → 154÷2 = 77 → −7.7 = 69.3 kg (exact: 69.85… close enough)
BMI: Same Formula in Both Units
Body Mass Index (BMI) works with both kg/m² and lbs/in²:
Metric: BMI = weight(kg) / height(m)²
Imperial: BMI = 703 × weight(lbs) / height(in)²
Both formulas give the same BMI result, so your BMI doesn’t change whether you measure in kg or lbs — only the formula changes.
