How to Calculate Your Estimated Blood Alcohol
Content (BAC)
Showing estimated percent of alcohol
in the blood by number of drinks in relation to body weight. This
percent can be estimated by:
1. Count your drinks(1 drink
equals 1 ounce of 100-proof liquor, one five Ounce glass of table
wine of one 12-ounce bottle of regular beer).
2. Use the chart below and under the number of "drinks"
and opposite “body weight” find the percent of blood
alcohol listed.
3. Subtract from this number the percent of
alcohol "burned up" during the time elapse since your
first drink. This figure is .015% per hour.
(Example: 180lb. Man – 8 drinks in 4 hours / .167% minus
(.015x4) = .107%
