Explanation / Answer

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int main ()
{
double height = 0.0;
double weight = 0.0;
double bmi = 0.0;

cout << "Enter your height (in inches): ";
cin >> height;

cout << "Enter your weight (in pounds): ";
cin >> weight;
bmi = 703 * weight / (height * height);

if (bmi < 18.5)
{
cout << "Your body weight category is underweight." << endl;
}
else if (bmi = 18.5 < 25)
{
cout << "Your body weight category is normal." << endl;
}
else if (bmi = 25 < 30)
{
cout << "Your body weight category is overweight." << endl;
}
else if (bmi >= 30)
{
cout << "Your body weight category is obese." << endl;
