If you are attempting to find the total amount of time, you would add the BC years to the AD years.
1200 BC would be 1200 + 2009 = 3209 years ago.
Okay Will AD is older than BC because AD is very old not like BC
It isn't a question of closer to ad or bc, it IS bc. 3000bc would be -3000ad.
BC= negative number AD= Positive number
BC comes before AD on a timeline. BC or BCE means before common era, AD means "In the year of Our Lord."BC first AD after
BC is "before Christ" and AD "anno domini"
(a + b)/(a - b) = (c + d)/(c - d) cross multiply(a + b)(c - d) = (a - b)(c + d)ac - ad + bc - bd = ac + ad - bc - bd-ad + bc = -bc + ad-ad - ad = - bc - bc-2ad = -2bcad = bc that is the product of the means equals the product of the extremesa/b = b/c
BP is a way of expressing the age of an object, as compared to BC or AD. BP is based on the disintegration of carbon. A rough formula for finding BP age from an AD is today's year minus 1950 = a number to subtract from the AD date. For example, an object is dated at 1,000 AD. It is now 2008, therefore 2008 - 1950 = 58. The object date 1,000 AD - 58 = 942 BP. Basically BP is approximately the BC date plus 1950 and the AD date minus today's year minus 1950.
71 cause no zero so minus those 2
To find the answer you go both ways. Add 940+123 and get 1063. Then you minus 1 to get 1062. THERE WAS NO 0 YEAR!!! Remember BC is going in reverse and AD is going forward.
The last date of BC was 1 BC, then the first date of AD was 1 AD, there was no zero.
Okay Will AD is older than BC because AD is very old not like BC
To understand this, should know two concepts. The birth of Jesus Christ is the dividing point of world history. From the point, left (BC) turns minus and right (AD) turns plus. BC (Before Christ) : - AD (Anoo Domini) : + This year is 2017 AD so 2017+323 = 2340 years ago from now.
BC : before Christ AD : anno domino
58 years are between 30 BC and AD 30. The first thing you need to remember is that there is no year 0; the year before AD 1 is 1 BC. So the years between 30 BC and AD 30 are... 29 BC, 28 BC, 27 BC, ..., 2 BC, 1 BC, AD1, AD 2, ..., AD 27, AD 28, AD 29 29 BC through 1 BC is 29 years, and AD 1 through AD 29 is 29 years. 29 years + 29 years = 58 years
It isn't a question of closer to ad or bc, it IS bc. 3000bc would be -3000ad.
Nothing. There was no time period between BC and AD. 1 BC was followed by 1 AD. There was no year zero or any gap between BC and AD.
bc comes first because bc stands for before christ
