Deidre bmi is 23.73.

1. Multiply the weight by .45:

135 X .45 = 60.75kg

2. Multiply the height in INCHES by .025

Convert 5feet 4inches to only inches (5*12+4) = 64 inches

Now multiply 64 X .025 = 1.6 m

3. Square the answer from the above step.

1.6 X 1.6 = 2.56m

4. Divide the answer from the first step by the answer from the third step.
60.75kg/2.56m = 23.73.


Deidre bmi is 23.73.
