Formula
Age in years = floor((today − birthdate) ÷ 365.25). The .25 accounts for leap years. Exact age in days = today − birthdate.
Worked Example
100 Value A to 25 Value B
- a
- 100
- b
- 25
- Result
- 4:1 (4.00)
100 / 25 = 4.00. Simplified: 4:1.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the Time Zone Converter computed?
Value A divided by Value B, plus a simplified ratio (e.g., 4:3) using greatest common divisor. Both decimal and ratio forms are useful in different contexts: decimal for math, ratio form for comparisons or recipe scaling.
What does Value A:Value B mean?
It's a comparison: for every Value B unit, you have a corresponding amount of Value A. Useful when the absolute numbers matter less than the proportion (e.g., reading 8:1 LTV/CAC immediately tells you the unit economics are healthy without needing the dollar amounts).
Why simplify the ratio?
4:3 is more readable than 200:150. The simplified form (using greatest common divisor) preserves the proportion while making it easier to interpret. Common simplified ratios: 16:9 (widescreen), 4:3 (legacy displays), 3:1 (LTV:CAC for SaaS).
When is a ratio more useful than the absolute values?
Comparison across scales. A $1B company and a $1M company can both have a 3:1 LTV:CAC; the ratio reveals comparable unit economics regardless of scale. Use ratios for benchmarking; use absolute numbers for budgeting.
