Formula & Mathematical Explanation

\displaystyle \text{IBW}_{\text{Male}} = 50 + 2.3 \times I_{\text{over 5ft}}, \quad \text{IBW}_{\text{Female}} = 45.5 + 2.3 \times I_{\text{over 5ft}}

Ideal Body Weight is estimated using the Devine formula (1974), which calculates a base weight for the first 5 feet of height and adds 2.3 kg per additional inch.
