What was the date 12 days ago?

Solution

Tuesday January 07, 2025

0

12 days ago from today was 07 Jan 2025, a Tuesday. Since today is Sunday, the calculation could get a bit more complicated if you want to account for business days becuase it's the weekend. In subtracting an 12-day span, we count back over a week, which means we need to account for workdays for those of us who prioritize them. Moving backward by more than a week from January suggests we might approach , given we’re currently in the middle of of this month.

How we calculated 12 days 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 12 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

We started with date inputs: used current day of 19 Jan, then set the calculation - 12 days, and factored in the year 2025
Noted your current time of year: 12 days in January will keep us in January and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.
Counted backwards days from current day: date - 19 Jan, factoring in the 19 days left in January to calculate Tuesday January 07, 2025
Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for January 07

Current date: 19 Jan
Day of the week: Tuesday
New Date: Tuesday January 07, 2025
New Date Day of the week: Tuesday
Counting back form January will put you close, if not passed, the previous year.

Ways to calculate 12 days ago

Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 12 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 19 days in January + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your days and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
Use January's calendar: Begin by identifying 19 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Tuesday, and the total days in (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 12 times days by days, subtracting days from until your remainder of days is 0.
Use excel: For more complex days calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-12 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -12, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 12 calendar days

12 days is Tuesday January 07, 2025 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 12 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Tuesday January 07, 2025 date.
