How Age is Calculated

Chronological age is calculated by determining the time that has elapsed since birth. The most common method counts full years, then remaining months, then remaining days.

  • February has 29 days in leap years, 28 in regular years
  • Average year length is 365.25 days for calculations
  • Including birth time gives precise age to the minute
