How It Works (Formula & Method)
This calculator takes Standard Drinks, Body Weight (lb), Sex, and Hours Since First Drink as input and computes Estimated BAC. The math runs entirely in your browser the moment you change a value — nothing is sent to a server, and your inputs are never stored.
The formula used is the standard fitness & health calculation for this metric. For a full step-by-step derivation with the default values, see the Worked Example section below.
