    How is the ideal weight of 51 kg for 158.5 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. 158.5 cm is 62.4 inches, 2.4 of them above the 60-inch mark, which gives 51 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 46.5 kg - 62.8 kg is the BMI band 18.5-24.9 applied to 158.5 cm, while the ideal weight 51 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 20.31. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
