To add it is good to study, Daniel is an example of someone who studied the WORD & understood the time. Daniel 9:2, If you would like more assistance on trivial questions that aren't obvious ask, maybe we can help search out answers.
Here are a few scriptures to help point towards truth in this question:
Genesis 1:1-8, creation of heavens or heaven aka Universe.
Genesis 1:14-19 GOD created the lights within the heavens/universe Earth's Moon & Sun, the galaxies, stars
2 Peter 3:8, I take this scripture also in consideration when trying to calculate.
Genesis 5:1-5, (Adam), Genesis 5:6-8, (Seth), Genesis 5:9-11 (Enos), Genesis 5:12-14 (Cainan), Genesis 5:15-17 (Mahalaleel), Genesis 5:18-20 (Jared), Genesis 5:21-24 (Enoch), Genesis 5:25-27 (Methuselah), Genesis 5:28-31 (Lamech), Genesis 5:32 beginning of Noahs days. Genesis 9:28-29, (Noah) , these all can be calculated
Genesis 10, goes from Noah's sons into historical events, which are more difficult to calculate. Then picks up again at Genesis 10:29 (Abram) aka Abraham. Genesis 11 also has calculatable ages.
Matthew 1:17,
To add to the difficulty in exact dates the beginning of the year changed for the Hebrews in Exodus 12:2,18,27, which is celebrated in Spring. In todays calendar is usually 3rd or 4th month of our calendar.
