Frequently Asked Questions
Why isn't a month exactly 4 weeks?
Only February (in non-leap years) has exactly 28 days, which is four weeks. All other months have 30 or 31 days, making them slightly longer than four weeks. To provide a consistent and accurate conversion for any time of year, calculators use an average. A year has 365.25 days, which is 52.14 weeks. Dividing that by 12 months gives us the standard average of 4.345 weeks per month.
What is the formula used for this conversion?
The calculator uses a straightforward and widely accepted formula to ensure accuracy:
Number of Months = Total Number of Weeks / 4.345
This is the standard method for converting weeks to months in financial and project planning contexts.
