What was the date 185 days ago?

Solution

Friday October 27, 2023

185 days ago from today was 27 Oct 2023, a Friday. Subtracting 185 days, or about six months or more, introduces a complex layer of our calculation. Since today is Monday, we'll need to account for a full week before hitting weekend days.. Currently, in the end of of April, we must consider the 3 days left out of the 30 to gauge the weekends involved. Understanding the number of weeks remaining in 2024 is crucial to determine whether we're looking back into a previous year. My advice? Start with weekly or monthly calculations before 185 days.

How we calculated 185 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 185 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 29 Apr, then set the calculation - 185 days, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 185 days in April will bring us back to March or further.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 29 Apr, factoring in the 3 days left in April to calculate Friday October 27, 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 October 27

  • Current date: 29 Apr
  • Day of the week: Friday
  • New Date: Friday October 27, 2023
  • New Date Day of the week: Friday
  • 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.
  • Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation.

Ways to calculate 185 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 185 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 3 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 29 Apr on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, 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 185 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()-185 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -185, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 185 calendar days

185 days is Friday October 27, 2023 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 185 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 October 27, 2023 date.
