180 days ago from today was 21 Oct 2024, a Monday. Subtracting a number of days that spans over three months takes us beyond simple day-to-day subtraction into calculating across weeks and months, crucial for understanding fiscal calendars. Considerations include the day of the week, and the length of both April and March, alongside seasonal and calendar transitions. Since today is Saturday, the calculation could be adjusted for work days. But If you just want the overall days, nothing will change. Given we're in the middle of of April, with 19 days left out of the 30, factoring in shifting weekends of that quarter becomes essential. For such extensive backward calculations, starting with week-by-week or month-by-month subtraction might offer clearer insights.

How we calculated 180 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 180 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 19 Apr, then set the calculation - 180 days, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 180 days in April will bring us back to March or further.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 19 Apr, factoring in the 19 days left in April to calculate Monday October 21, 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 October 21

  • Current date: 19 Apr
  • Day of the week: Monday
  • New Date: Monday October 21, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Monday
  • October marks the start of Q4 so counting backward will put you back into the 3 fiscal quarter.
  • 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 180 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 180 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 19 days in April + 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 April's calendar: Begin by identifying 19 Apr on a calendar, note that it’s Monday, and the total days in March (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 180 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()-180 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -180, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 180 calendar days

180 days is Monday October 21, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 180 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Monday October 21, 2024 date.
