How to work out 51 years in days
Multiply the years by 365, then add one day for every February 29 between the birth date and the 51st birthday. Leap years come every four years, except century years not divisible by 400, so a 51-year span covers 12 or 13 of them.
+ 12 or 13 leap days
= 18,627 or 18,628 days
