19 stones is 120.6555704 kg. The exact arithmetic is 19 × 6.35029318 = 120.65557042 kilograms, using the defined factor rather than a rounded one, so this matches what a calibrated instrument would give you.
At 120.656 kg, BMI works out to 47.1 at 1.60 m, 41.7 at 1.70 m, 37.2 at 1.80 m and 33.4 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 0.6556 kg past 120 kg, so if you need a round figure to quote, 120 kg is the honest nearest one. Plenty of people do this in their head: multiply by 6.4 instead of using the exact factor 6.35029318. At 19 that shortcut gives 121.6 kilograms, off by 0.9444 kilograms or about 0.78%. Fine for a rough estimate, not fine for anything you are cutting to size or dosing.
