Frequently Asked Questions

How do I work out my age from my birth year?
Subtract your birth year from the current year. That's your age once you've had this year's birthday; before your birthday, take away one more year.
How do I get my exact age in years, months and days?
Open the page for your birth year and add your birth month and day, or use the age calculator for any full date of birth.
