The body fat percentage is the ratio between a person's total body fat and total mass (commonly known as weight). This calculator uses the BMI method to determine the rough estimated fat percentage based on height, weight and age.

The formula for determining the body fat percentage for an adult is defined as:
\(BFP\) \(=\) \(1.39\) \(\times\) \(BMI\) \(+\) \(0.16\) \(\times\) \(age\) \(-\) \(10.34\) \(\times\) \(g\) \(-\) \(9\)
\(BFP\): Body fat percentage
\(height\): \(= height_{feet} + height_{inch}\)
\(weight\): the weight measured in pound(lbs)
\(height_{feet}\): The first part of the height measured in feet. For example \({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} 5}\) in \({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} 5}\)'10''
\(height_{inch}\): The second part of the height measured in inch. For example \({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} 10}\) in 5'\({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} 10}\)''
\(age\): your age measured in years
The SI unit for body fat percentage is: \(%\)
