How Age is Calculated
Calculating age accurately involves more than just subtracting years. Our calculator:
- Calculates the difference in years between the birth date and current date
- Adjusts the year difference if the birth month and day haven't occurred yet in the current year
- Calculates the remaining months and days for a precise age
- Accounts for leap years and varying month lengths
Different Age Formats
Age can be expressed in different formats depending on the context:
- Years, Months, Days: The most precise format (e.g., 25 years, 3 months, 15 days)
- Decimal Years: Age expressed as a decimal (e.g., 25.29 years)
- Total Months: Age expressed in total months (e.g., 303 months)
- Total Weeks: Age expressed in total weeks (e.g., 1,317 weeks)
- Total Days: Age expressed in total days (e.g., 9,220 days)
