What is a day?
A day is 24 hours, one nominal rotation of the Earth.
Definition: Exactly 86,400 seconds by convention. The Earth's actual rotation drifts slightly, which is what leap seconds correct.
Where it is used: Calendars, project schedules, hotel and rental periods, and interest accrual.
What is a month?
A month here means the *average* calendar month, since real months vary from 28 to 31 days.
Definition: Taken as one twelfth of a Julian year — 30.4375 days, or exactly 2,629,800 seconds.
Where it is used: Subscription and loan periods, rent, and any calculation that needs a consistent month length.
Worth knowing: Because calendar months differ in length, this average is the right choice for arithmetic but will not match a specific month exactly.
