Answer 1

Body surface area (BSA) is a measurement of the surface of the body using height and weight. It acts as a better indicator of metabolic mass compared to body weight since it is not affected by abnormal adipose mass.
BSA = (Height × Body weight) ÷ 3131
        = (63 × 167) ÷ 3131 = 1.83 m²
The body surface area for the woman is 1.83 m²

Answer 2

The BSA of woman body is $1.8331 m^2$.
