What was the date 1 month ago?


Solution

Wednesday February 26, 2025

0

1 month before today was 26 Feb 2025, a Wednesday. Subtracting 1 months in the past is usually just counting from March; however, longer calculations will push us from 2025 into 2024 or further. Even if the calculation remains within the year, I usually take note of the 26 days left in the end of March to prep for an additional calculation before February. But that’s all there is to it - understand the month, if 1 months will change the year, season, or fiscal calendar, and subtract your dates.

How we calculated 1 month before today

All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how 1 month ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 26 Mar, then set the calculation - 1 month, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 1 month in March will keep us in March and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.
  3. Counted backwards month from current day: date - 26 Mar, factoring in the 26 days left in March to calculate Wednesday February 26, 2025
  4. Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for February 26

  • Current date: 26 Mar
  • Day of the week: Wednesday
  • New Date: Wednesday February 26, 2025
  • New Date Day of the week: Wednesday
  • Remember February has 28 or 29 days depending on Leap Year! This may not impact time in the past, but it will impact future dates.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.

Ways to calculate 1 month ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 1 month is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 26 days in March + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your month and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
  2. Use March's calendar: Begin by identifying 26 Mar on a calendar, note that it’s Wednesday, and the total days in February (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until last year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count backwards 1 times month by month, subtracting month from until your remainder of month is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex month calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-1 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -1, cell:cell) for working month.

Working month in 1 calendar month

1 month is Wednesday February 26, 2025 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 1 month and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Wednesday February 26, 2025 date.
