Harry was born in July 31 1980, and his parents die on October 31st of the following year (exactly 1 year and 3 months later), so when he is 1.25 years old. and that night, he is sent to live with the Dursleys.
When he meets Hagrid (and the whole ,"yer a wizard Harry" happens) his 11th birthday just rolls out. 11 - 1.25 = 9.75
Hence the time spent at the Dursleys before learning about magic is exactly 9 3/4 years. COINCIDENCE???

Did I come back from a week long hiatus just to make another #DailyFact? yes i did ;)
