Days to Years

A day is 24 hours, based on one full rotation of the Earth on its axis. A year is approximately 365.24 days, the time Earth takes to orbit the Sun once. 1 day equals ≈0.00273791 yr, so converting between them is a matter of multiplying by that fixed factor — type any value into the converter below and both sides update instantly as you type.

Both units belong to time, measured here against time's base unit (s) — every other time unit on this site converts through that same reference point, which is why the table below can also be read as a quick cross-check against nearby values.

Formula

yr = day × ≈0.00273791

day = yr × ≈365.243

Worked example: 5 day × ≈0.00273791 = ≈0.0136895 yr.
