Age Calculator

Calculate your exact age from your birth date. Get detailed breakdown in years, months, days, and more.

Understanding Age Calculation

Age calculation seems simple, but precise calculation requires accounting for leap years, varying month lengths, and exact dates. Our calculator provides accurate results down to the day.

How Age is Calculated

Age is calculated by subtracting your birth date from the current date (or target date), then converting the result into various time units:

  • Years: Complete years since birth
  • Months: Additional months beyond complete years
  • Days: Additional days beyond complete months
  • Total Days: Total number of days you've been alive
  • Hours/Minutes: For fun perspective on your time on Earth

Leap Years and Accuracy

Leap years add complexity to age calculation. February has 29 days in leap years (years divisible by 4, except century years not divisible by 400). Our calculator accounts for all leap years since your birth for precise results.
