What is Blood Alcohol Calculator?

▾

A Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) calculator estimates alcohol concentration in the blood using the Widmark formula. BAC is affected by drinks consumed, time elapsed, body weight, and sex.

Calkulon makes complex calculations simple — built for students and everyday problem-solvers.

Formulė

▾

f(x)BAC = (Alcohol grams) / (Body weight kg × r) × 100 − (0.015 × hours), where r=0.68 (male), 0.55 (female)

Variable Legend

▾

Symbol	Vardas	Vienetas	Aprašymas
BAC	Blood Alcohol Content	%	—
A	Alcohol consumed	grams	—
W	Body weight	kg	—
r	Distribution ratio	—	0.68 male, 0.55 female

How to Blood Alcohol Calculator

▾

1BAC = (Alcohol consumed in grams) / (Body weight in g × r) − (0.015 × hours)
2r = 0.68 for men, 0.55 for women (body water distribution)
3Standard UK unit = 8g alcohol; US standard drink = 14g
4Legal UK driving limit: 80mg/100mL blood (0.08%)

Worked Examples

▾

Example 1

Given:2 pints beer (4.5%), 80kg male, 1 hour

Rezultatas:Alcohol ≈ 45.4g; BAC ≈ 45.4/(80,000×0.68) − 0.015 ≈ 0.068%

BAC Effects

▾

BAC %	Effects
0.02–0.05	Mild relaxation, slight impairment
0.06–0.10	Impaired judgement, legal limit in many countries
0.11–0.20	Significant impairment, slurred speech
0.20+	Severe impairment, risk of blackout or death

Frequently Asked Questions

▾

Why do women get drunk faster?

Women have lower body water % (r=0.55 vs 0.68 for men) and typically lower body weight, concentrating alcohol more.

What's the UK legal driving limit?

80 mg/100 mL blood (0.08% BAC) in England/Wales/Scotland. Scotland's limit is lower: 50 mg/100 mL.

Can food affect BAC calculation?

Food slows absorption but doesn't reduce total BAC. It delays peak BAC by 30-60 minutes.
