Conversion formula

The conversion factor from years to months is 12, which means that 1 year is equal to 12 months:

1 yr = 12 mo

To convert 2.5 years into months we have to multiply 2.5 by the conversion factor in order to get the time amount from years to months. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 yr → 12 mo

2.5 yr → T_(mo)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the time T in months:

T_(mo) = 2.5 yr × 12 mo

T_(mo) = 30 mo

The final result is:

2.5 yr → 30 mo

We conclude that 2.5 years is equivalent to 30 months:

2.5 years = 30 months

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 month is equal to 0.033333333333333 × 2.5 years.

Another way is saying that 2.5 years is equal to 1 ÷ 0.033333333333333 months.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two point five years is approximately thirty months:

2.5 yr ≅ 30 mo

An alternative is also that one month is approximately zero point zero three three times two point five years.
