Frequently asked questions
- How is exact age calculated?
- The calculator counts complete years from the birth date to today, then the complete months after that, then the leftover days. It does this against the real calendar, so a birth date of 31 January reaching 1 March is handled correctly rather than assuming every month has 30 days. The result is the same as counting full years and months on a calendar.
- Why does my age in months not match years times twelve plus the months shown?
- It does. The total-months figure is simply your years multiplied by twelve plus the extra whole months. For example, 36 years and 0 months is 432 total months. The breakdown and the totals are two views of the same elapsed time.
- What happens with a 29 February birthday?
- In a year that is not a leap year, the calculator treats the birthday as falling on 28 February for counting purposes, so a leap-day baby still has a birthday every year and the age never gets stuck. In a leap year the birthday lands on 29 February as normal.
- Can I calculate my age on a past or future date?
- Yes. Leave the "age at" date on today for your age right now, or set any other date to find how old you were, or will be, on that day. It is handy for checking an age against a form's cut-off date, or how old someone will be at a wedding, an exam or a big event.
