Common mistakes
- Multiplying instead of dividing. A year is larger than a week, so the number of years must come out smaller: 26 weeks = 0.49863 yr.
- Ignoring leap years. This page uses 365-day years. For an exact calendar span between two dates, count the leap days (one every four years) or use 365.25 days per year.
- Rounding too early. Keep the full factor until the last step; rounding 0.0192 to 0.019 first puts large values noticeably off.
