How is the ideal weight of 60.5 kg for 164 cm calculated?

By the Devine formula (1974): it starts from 50 kg for a man and adds 2.3 kg for every inch above 5 feet. 164 cm is 64.57 inches, 4.57 of them above the 60-inch mark, which gives 60.5 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.
