Friday July 12, 2024

15 days ago from today was 12 Jul 2024, a Friday. When calculating a period over two weeks in the past, it's important to account for the day of the week. Since today is Saturday, the calculation could be adjusted for work days. But If you just want the overall days, nothing will change. This takes our subtraction across multiple weeks, and with 27 days until the end of July counting backwards from today in the end of of the month means that subtracting 15 days ago will keep us in July and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.

How we calculated 15 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 15 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 27 Jul, then set the calculation - 15 days, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 15 days in July will keep us in July and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 27 Jul, factoring in the 27 days left in July to calculate Friday July 12, 2024
  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 July 12

  • Current date: 27 Jul
  • Day of the week: Friday
  • New Date: Friday July 12, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Friday
  • July is one of the highest vacation months, so prepare for more OOO messages.
  • Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation.

Ways to calculate 15 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 15 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 27 days in July + 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!).
  2. Use July's calendar: Begin by identifying 27 Jul on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, and the total days in June (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 15 times days by days, subtracting days from until your remainder of days is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex days calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-15 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -15, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 15 calendar days

15 days is Friday July 12, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 15 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Friday July 12, 2024 date.
