I see you’ve provided an image of an Ideal Weight Calculator and a comprehensive guide on various types of weight calculators.

The image shows the input fields for the Ideal Weight Calculator:

  • Gender: Select
  • Height (cm): Enter your height
  • A Calculate button

Based on the text you provided, the Ideal Body Weight (IBW) is determined by height and gender using the Devine formula:

  • Male: 50 kg+2.3 kg×(height in inches–60)
  • Female: 45.5 kg+2.3 kg×(height in inches–60)

Since the calculator in the image takes height in centimeters (cm), the formula will need a conversion: 1 inch≈2.54 cm.
