Saturday May 06, 2023

365 days ago from today was 06 May 2023, a Saturday. Subtracting 365 days, or about six months or more, introduces a complex layer of our calculation. 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. Currently, in the early part of of May, we must consider the 5 days left out of the 31 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 jumping into a 365 day calculation.

How we calculated 365 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 365 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 05 May, then set the calculation - 365 days, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 365 days in May will bring us back to April or further.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 05 May, factoring in the 5 days left in May to calculate Saturday May 06, 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 May 06

  • Current date: 05 May
  • Day of the week: Saturday
  • New Date: Saturday May 06, 2023
  • New Date Day of the week: Saturday
  • Counting backward from May could put you back in Q1 or even the previous year.
  • 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 365 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 365 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 5 days in May + 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 May's calendar: Begin by identifying 05 May on a calendar, note that it’s Saturday, and the total days in April (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 365 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()-365 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -365, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 365 calendar days

365 days is Saturday May 06, 2023 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 365 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Saturday May 06, 2023 date.
