What was the date 60 days ago?


Solution

Tuesday May 28, 2024

0

60 days ago from today was 28 May 2024, a Tuesday. As we approach calculations over month in the past, the 31 days in July play significant roles, alongside 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. Counting backwards from today skips several weekends, meaning that subtracting 60 days takes us from the end of of July to potentially crossing far beyond July or June. For those of us focusing on workdays, subtracting 60 days ago necessitates adjustments for the fiscal calendar (don’t worry, I've accounted for it below).

How we calculated 60 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 60 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 27 Jul, then set the calculation - 60 days, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 60 days in July will bring us back to June or further.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 27 Jul, factoring in the 27 days left in July to calculate Tuesday May 28, 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 May 28

  • Current date: 27 Jul
  • Day of the week: Tuesday
  • New Date: Tuesday May 28, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Tuesday
  • Counting backward from May could put you back in Q1 or even the previous year.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.

Ways to calculate 60 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 60 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 Tuesday, 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 60 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()-60 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -60, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 60 calendar days

60 days is Tuesday May 28, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 60 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Tuesday May 28, 2024 date.
