Where:

• \( \text{days} \) — Number of days to convert
• \( 30.4375 \) — Average number of days in a month (365.25 days/year ÷ 12 months/year)

Explanation: The calculation uses the average month length accounting for leap years over a 4-year cycle.

3. Importance of Time Conversion

Details: Converting between time units is essential for project planning, financial calculations, scientific research, and comparing durations across different measurement systems.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the number of days (must be positive). The result will show the equivalent duration in months based on the average month length.
