Ideal Weight for Male Formula (B.J. Devine)

Ideal Weight for Male = 50kg + 2.3kg per inch over 5 feet

Here is the complete solution:

50kg + 2.3kg × ( (1 ÷ 2.54) × 141cm - 60)

50 + 2.3 × (55.51 - 60)

=

50 + 2.3 × -4.49

The formula uses 0 when the value is negative (height below 5 feet / 60 inches)

50 + 2.3 × 0

=

50 + 0

=

50 kg
