Age calc is wrong

I find the age of a person by using the formula

(Get ( CurrentDate )-Birthdate) / 365

The result is a number. The Birthdate is a date.

If I use a birthdate of 2/5/1925, I get the answer 80.019 (+more decimals)

It is not February yet, so the age should not be over 80 yet. This is a strange rounding error or is the basic calculation wrong?

This is with FM PRO 7

The basic calculation is wrong. On average, there are 365.2425 days in a Gregorian year. So either use

(Get ( CurrentDate )-Birthdate) / 365.2425

or see here for a more traditional age calculation.
