How To Calculate Your Estimated Blood Alcohol Content (BAC)
The estimated percent of alcohol in the blood by number of drinks in relation to body weight can be estimated by:
-
Counting your drinks. Remember: 1 drink equals 1 ounce of 100-proof liquor, one five ounce glass of table wine or one 12-ounce bottle of regular beer.
-
Under number of "drinks" and opposite "body weight" find the percent of blood alcohol listed by using the table below
-
After finding this number, subtract the percent of alcohol taken in during the time elapsed since your first drink. This figure is .015% per hour. For example: 180 lb. man - 8 drinks in 4 hours / .167% minus (.015x4) = .107%
