How many days are in 6 months?

Answer 1

On average, there are about 182 or 183 days in six months. It matters what months you use, as if you have February it will be two or three days fewer. But on average the number of days in 6 months is 182.625 (half of the 365.25 days in a year).

Answer 2

The months included and whether it's a leap year can affect how many days there are in six months.

Taking into account a year of 365.25 days, an average month has 30.44 days. Thus, roughly speaking, in six months there would be: six

per month × 30.44 days/month = 182.64 days

30.44 days/month for six months = 182.64 days

If you would like a more accurate computation, you could take into account the individual months and see if any of them have 31 days or 28/29 days (February), and then add them all up.

Taking January (30 days), February (28 or 29 days depending on the year), March (31 days), April (30 days), May (31 days), and June (30 days), for instance, we would have:

• 31 + 28 / 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30
