How to work out 73 years in days
Multiply the years by 365, then add one day for every February 29 between the birth date and the 73rd birthday. Leap years come every four years, except century years not divisible by 400, so a 73-year span covers 18 or 19 of them.
+ 18 or 19 leap days
= 26,663 or 26,664 days
