I'd really like to know equation for how to find your body mass?

Wt/(ht) squared: There are bmi calculators on the web. The formula is weight (in kilograms) divided by height (in meters) squared. One can use lbs for weight and inches for height but then you multiply the result by 703. A bmi of 18.5 to 24.9 is normal, 25-29.9 is overweight, over 30 is obese.
