    How is the ideal weight of 48.3 kg for 155.5 cm calculated?

    By the Devine formula (1974): it starts from 45.5 kg for a woman and adds 2.3 kg for every inch above 5 feet. 155.5 cm is 61.22 inches, 1.22 of them above the 60-inch mark, which gives 48.3 kg. Below 5 feet the surcharge is zero and the base weight stands.

    Why do the ideal weight and the healthy range give different answers?

    They are two different models. The range 44.7 kg - 60.5 kg is the BMI band 18.5-24.9 applied to 155.5 cm, while the ideal weight 48.3 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 19.98. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
