You need to supply an algorithm for determining that conversion or use a look up table. For example, you want 6 months to be displayed as 168 days. But various six month periods can have 182-184 days (fewer if you don't count the weekends) so it is hard to make the conversion to 168 days. Both months and years have varying number of days.
