Body mass index (BMI) is calculated using the formula \(BMI=\frac{weight (kg)}{height (m)^2}\). This formula clearly shows that it is a ratio of an individual's weight to their height. It is not a direct measure of body fat percentage (as there are other methods like skin - fold calipers for that), not a direct measure of chronic disease risk (though it is used as an indicator in some cases), and not a measure of physical activity level.
