How Age is Calculated
Understanding how age is calculated helps you appreciate the precision of our tool and why knowing your exact age matters.
Chronological Age
This is the most common measure—the time elapsed since your birth date. It’s calculated by subtracting your birth year from the current year, then adjusting for whether your birthday has occurred.
Years, Months & Days
For precision, we calculate your age down to the exact day. This accounts for varying month lengths (28-31 days) and provides an accurate picture of your age.
Leap Year Considerations
Born on February 29th? You technically only have a birthday every 4 years! Our calculator handles leap year birthdays by calculating your age accurately regardless.
International Age Systems
Some cultures, like Korean age, count age differently. In Korea, you’re 1 at birth and gain a year every January 1st. Our calculator uses the Western chronological system.
The Mathematics Behind Age Calculation
Age calculation follows a simple formula: subtract your birth date from the target date. However, the complexity arises when dealing with months of different lengths. Our calculator handles this by:
- First calculating complete years
- Then counting remaining complete months
- Finally determining the remaining days
