Answer to Question 1

33.9

The BMI is calculated by dividing the pounds expressed as kilograms by the height in meters squared.
6 feet = 72 inches  39.37 = 1.83 meters
250 pounds  2.2 = 113.6 kg
113.6  (1.83  1.83) = 33.9

Answer to Question 2

kilocalorie

The kilocalorie is the energy value by which foods are measured for their energy-producing potential.
