Age Calculator

In Western countries, age is calculated based on the traditional birthday system, while the Traditional Chinese age system considers age differently, often starting from the Traditional Chinese New Year. You can choose any starting date and end date to calculate the exact duration in different units of time.

Our chronological age calculator is useful for everyone—from checking your current age for lifestyle adjustments to determining your retirement age or even calculating a family member’s age. Using this tool is as simple as entering your date of birth and hitting the Calculate button. Instantly, you’ll get your exact age, helping you stay informed and organized for personal, professional, or health purposes.

Formula / Working Explanation

The Age Calculator works by calculating the difference between the start date (usually your date of birth) and the end date (current date or any specific date). The tool converts this difference into:

• Years = Total days ÷ 365.25 (accounting for leap years)
• Months = Years × 12 + remaining months
• Weeks = Total days ÷ 7
• Days = Total days between dates
• Hours = Days × 24
• Minutes = Hours × 60
• Seconds = Minutes × 60

This allows you to know your chronological age in different units and compare it to standard age systems.

Example Calculation

Date of Birth: 15 January 1990
Current Date: 20 August 2025

• Years: 35
• Months: 35 × 12 + 7 = 427 months
• Weeks: 35 × 52 + 32 ≈ 1832 weeks
• Days: 35 × 365 + 2 leap days ≈ 12,784 days
• Hours: 12,784 × 24 ≈ 306,816 hours
• Minutes: 306,816 × 60 ≈ 18,408,960 minutes
• Seconds: 18,408,960 × 60 ≈ 1,104,537,600 seconds
