Answer :

I will request that the 18-year-old youngster have his mass index checked as a registered nurse.

The body mass indicator( BMI) is a dimension grounded on a person's mass( weight) and height. The BMI is calculated by dividing the body weight by the forecourt of the height, and it's expressed in kilograms per forecourt cadence( kg/ m2) since weight is measured in kilograms and height is measured in measures.

A table( a) or map that plots BMI as a function of mass and height using figure lines or colors for different BMI orders can be used to calculate BMI. The table or map may also use other units of dimension that are restated to metric units for the calculation.
