What was the date 16 months ago?


Solution

Sunday September 24, 2023

0

16 months before today was 24 Sep 2023, a Sunday. Subtracting 16 months in the past is usually just counting from January; 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 24 days left in the end of January to prep for an additional calculation before . But that’s all there is to it - understand the month, if 16 months will change the year, season, or fiscal calendar, and subtract your dates.

How we calculated 16 months 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 16 months ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 24 Jan, then set the calculation - 16 months, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 16 months in January will keep us in January and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.
  3. Counted backwards months from current day: date - 24 Jan, factoring in the 24 days left in January to calculate Sunday September 24, 2023
  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 September 24

  • Current date: 24 Jan
  • Day of the week: Sunday
  • New Date: Sunday September 24, 2023
  • New Date Day of the week: Sunday
  • Counting backward from September puts you back into the summer! September is the official start of fall.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 16 months ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 16 months is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 24 days in January + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your months and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
  2. Use January's calendar: Begin by identifying 24 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Sunday, 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 16 times months by months, subtracting months from until your remainder of months is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex months calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-16 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -16, cell:cell) for working months.

Working months in 16 calendar months

16 months is Sunday September 24, 2023 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 16 months and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Sunday September 24, 2023 date.
