Are months to decades conversions affected by leap years?

No, not in the standard conversion. A leap year adds one day, not a month.
A decade still counts as 10 years, and the month count stays 120 months.

Do all decades have the same number of days?

No. The number of days can change because of leap years.
Most decades have either 2 or 3 leap years, depending on where they fall.

Why does the month count stay the same if days change?

Months are counted by calendar months, not by total days.
Leap years change the day count in February, but they don’t add extra months.

What’s the quickest way to estimate decades from months?

Use a simple shortcut: 120 months is about 1 decade.
Examples:

60 months is about 0.5 decade
240 months is about 2 decades
360 months is about 3 decades

Can you convert months to decades using days instead?

You can, but it gets messy. Months have different day counts (28 to 31).
For clean results, use the calendar conversion: 120 months per decade.

What’s the difference between “10 years” and “a decade”?

There’s no difference. A decade is just another way to say 10 years.
