Question

In Java, need to create a program with Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of health on weight. It can be calculated by taking your weight in kilograms and dividing, by the square of your height in meters. Write a program that prompts the user to enter a weight in pounds and height in inches and displays the BMI. Note one pound is 0.45359237 kilograms and one inch is 0.0254 meters.

Here is a sample run:

Enter weight in pounds: 95.5 ⏎

Enter your height in inches: 4.25 ⏎

BMI is 26.8573

Also need a flowchart

Answer 1

Flowchart:

Java program:

// Java program to calculate Body Mass Index (BMI) given its height and weight

public class BMI{

               public static void main(String[] args) {

             Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

             double weight, height;

             // input of weight

             System.out.print("Enter weight in pounds: ");

             weight = scan.nextDouble();

             // input of height

             System.out.print("Enter your height in inches: ");

             height = scan.nextDouble();

             // calculate bmi by converting weight to kg and height to m

             double bmi = (weight*0.45359237)/(Math.pow(height*0.0254,2));

             // print bmi

             System.out.println("BMI is "+bmi);

             scan.close();

       }

}

//end of program

Output:
