Default CAn any one solve this problem of days months and years.its urgent plzzzzzzzzzzzz


Doesn't making the assumptions on the length of the month cause problems
in calculations? Playing around with this a little I thought that this
should be an answer of 4 years, 2 months and 3 days.

This was using the formulas of
Years :
=A2+IF(B211,ROUNDDOWN(B2/12,0))+ROUNDDOWN((($B$2-(ROUNDDOWN($B$2/12,0)*12))+ROUNDDOWN($C$2/(365/12),0))/12,0)
Months :
=(((($B$2-(ROUNDDOWN($B$2/12,0)*12))+ROUNDDOWN($C$2/(365.25/12),0)))/12-ROUNDDOWN(((($B$2-(ROUNDDOWN($B$2/12,0)*12))+ROUNDDOWN($C$2/(365.25/12),0)))/12,0))*12
Days : =ROUNDDOWN(C2-(ROUNDDOWN(C2/(365.25/12),0))*(365.25/12),0)

Or alternatively using the formula

=A2+IF(B211,ROUNDDOWN(B2/12,0))+ROUNDDOWN((($B$2-(ROUNDDOWN($B$2/12,0)*12))+ROUNDDOWN($C$2/(365/12),0))/12,0)&"
Years
"&(((($B$2-(ROUNDDOWN($B$2/12,0)*12))+ROUNDDOWN($C$2/(365.25/12),0)))/12-ROUNDDOWN(((($B$2-(ROUNDDOWN($B$2/12,0)*12))+ROUNDDOWN($C$2/(365.25/12),0)))/12,0))*12&"
Months "&ROUNDDOWN(C2-(ROUNDDOWN(C2/(365.25/12),0))*(365.25/12),0)&"
Days"

Or is this just me being obsessed with trying to find different ways
for doing things? Your way does seem much neater!!!

Hi friends..i have a problem in ecel. supose i have the following excel
sheet

A2 = Years = 0
B2 = Months = 47
C2 = Days = 95
i ma ssuming 365 days in a year and 30 days in a month..
now i want to convert these days and months into years months and days
as answer should be 4 years 2 months and 5 days i want a formula to
calculate the answer.....
i am using the following formulas for this problem.
Years: =A2+INT(B2/12)
Just in case the days =360 change to:

=A2+INT(B2/12)+INT(C2/360)

Months: =MOD(B2+INT(C2/30),12)

Days: =MOD(C2,30)
but these formulas give me answer as 3 years 2 months and 5 days.as it
is wrong it should be 4 years 2months and 5 days..


i will be evry thank ful to u.plz do help meeeeeeeeee
