Frequently asked questions
- How many days are in each month?
- Seven months have 31 days: January, March, May, July, August, October and December. Four have 30 days: April, June, September and November. February has 28 days, or 29 in a leap year. The calculator returns the exact count for the year you choose.
- How many days are in February?
- February has 28 days in a common year and 29 days in a leap year. A leap year is one that divides by 4, except for century years, which must also divide by 400. Enter a year and the calculator applies this rule for you.
- Is there a trick for remembering month lengths?
- Yes, the knuckle method. Make a fist and count across the knuckles and the dips between them, starting with January on the first knuckle. Every month that lands on a knuckle has 31 days, and every one that lands in a dip has 30, except February. It is a quick way to check without the calculator.
