How the calculation works
Calendar months are not all the same length, so whole-month and approximate-month views can differ.
Core relationship: Whole months are counted from matching calendar day positions; the approximate value is based on elapsed days.
Practical example
Enter a realistic set of values from your own task and compare the result with a second scenario. This is often the fastest way to understand how changing one input affects the output.
