About Year (365 days) (yr)
Definition
The common year is a unit of time equal to 365 days, or 31,536,000 seconds.
Mathematical Relationship
1 yr = 365 d = 8,760 h = 525,600 min = 31,536,000 s. A leap year has 366 days (31,622,400 s).
Conversion Formula
To convert years to days: multiply by 365 (or 365.25 for average including leap years). To seconds: multiply by 31,536,000.
Practical Applications
Age calculation, financial year reporting, contract durations, academic years, and historical timeline reference.
Interesting Facts
The year 2000 was a leap year (divisible by 400), but 1900 was not (divisible by 100 but not 400). The Gregorian rule fixes the calendar's drift to 1 day per 3,236 years.
Common Mistakes
Assuming every 4th year is a leap year — century years must be divisible by 400 (so 1900 wasn't a leap year).
Educational Tips
Leap year rule: divisible by 4 = leap, UNLESS divisible by 100, UNLESS also divisible by 400. So 2000 was, 1900 wasn't.
About Century (cen)
Definition
A century is a unit of time equal to 100 years, or approximately 36,525 days (3,153,600,000 seconds based on 365-day years).
Mathematical Relationship
1 century = 100 years = 10 decades = 1,200 months ≈ 36,525 average days.
Conversion Formula
To convert centuries to years: multiply by 100. To decades: multiply by 10.
Practical Applications
Historical periodization, infrastructure planning (century-old bridges), and long-term climate projections.
Interesting Facts
The Gregorian calendar gained only about 1 day of error per 3,236 years — meaning it stays accurate for centuries without adjustment.
Common Mistakes
The 21st century began on January 1, 2001 — not 2000. There was no year 0, so the first century was years 1–100.
Educational Tips
Century numbering: the 1900s = 20th century. Add 1 to the hundreds: 1800s = 19th century, 2000s = 21st century.
