    Easier to skip the details and use Noah's life time.
    Genesis 7
    10 And after seven days the floodwaters came upon the earth.
    11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.
    12 And the rain fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.


    13 On that very day Noah entered the ark, along with his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and his wife, and the three wives of his sons—
    14 they and every kind of wild animal, livestock, crawling creature, bird, and winged creature.
    15 They came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two of every creatures with the breath of life.
    16 And they entered, the male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.


    Genesis 8
    Exiting the Ark


    13 In Noah’s six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters had dried up from the earth. So Noah removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry.
    14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month, the earth was fully dry.


    15 Then God said to Noah,
    16 “Come out of the ark, you and your wife, along with your sons and their wives.
    17 Bring out all the living creatures that are with you—birds, livestock, and everything that crawls upon the ground—so that they can spread out over the earth and be fruitful and multiply upon it.”


    So they were shut in the ark on the 17th day of the second month of Noah's 600 th year and came out on the 27th day of the 2nd month of his 601 st year.
