93 kilograms works out to 205.0299038 lb. The calculation is 93 × 2.204622622, and the unrounded result is 205.029903832 pounds, which is the number to use if this feeds into anything else.
At 93 kg, BMI works out to 36.3 at 1.60 m, 32.2 at 1.70 m, 28.7 at 1.80 m and 25.8 at 1.90 m. The healthy band tops out at 25, so the same weight can sit in three different categories depending on height — which is the whole limitation of the index.
The result sits 4.97 lb short of 210 lb, so if you need a round figure to quote, 210 lb is the honest nearest one. Plenty of people do this in their head: multiply by 2.2 instead of using the exact factor 2.204622622. At 93 that shortcut gives 204.6 pounds, off by 0.4299 pounds or about 0.21%. Fine for a rough estimate, not fine for anything you are cutting to size or dosing.
