2-3 Calculating the Body Mass Index (BMI). (Programming Exercise 2.14) Body Mass Index is a measure of health based on your 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. Hint: Convert the pounds entered into kilograms also convert the height in inches into meters Example: If you entered in pounds your weight as 95.5 and your height as 50 inches then the calculated BMI is 26.8573 FYI: BMI < 18.5 is underweight BMI >
