BMI calculator not working

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main() {
    double w, h, b;
    printf("Enter your weight in pounds \n");
    scanf("%d", &w);
    printf("Enter your height in inches \n");
    scanf("%d", &h);
    h = h/12;
    b = w*703 / (h*h);
    if (b < 18.5) {
        printf("underweight");
    } else if (b>=18.5 && b<25) {
        printf("normal");
    } else {
        printf("overweight");
    }
    system("Pause");
}

ok so my code prints "Underweight* no matter what numbers I type in and I have no idea why. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be much appreciated

You're reading in the numbers as integers when they're doubles. You want

scanf("%lf", &w);

etc.
