Conversion factors are exact definitions, not approximations.
How the time calculation works
Time units are fixed until you reach months and years. A day is exactly 86,400 seconds, and a week is exactly seven days.
Months and years are not fixed lengths, so this converter uses the average values: a month is 30.44 days (365.2425 ÷ 12) and a year is 365.2425 days. For calendar work, use the age calculator, which counts actual months between dates.
Worked example

- →2 × 3,600 = 7,200 seconds

Time FAQs
How many seconds are in a day?
86,400 — 24 × 60 × 60. A week is 604,800 seconds.
Why is a month 30.44 days?
Because calendar months vary from 28 to 31 days. Averaging the Gregorian year (365.2425 days) across twelve months gives 30.44.
How do I work out someone's age in days?
Use the age calculator. It counts actual days between two calendar dates, which is more accurate than dividing years by a fixed factor.
