If a student from Thailand was born in 2517 how old is that student
today? In Western years. 


Please provide a source and your math on how you converted the Thai
year to a Western/Gregorian year.

Hi there,

The Thai calendar is 543 years ahead of the Gregorian calendar. In
your question above the student was born in 2517, which in the
Gregorian calendar is 1974 (2517-543=1974). That would make the
student 28 years old this year.

Hope that answers your question! If not, please feel free to ask for
clarification before rating this answer.
