What was the date 60 months ago?


Solution

Tuesday January 14, 2020

0

60 months before today was 14 Jan 2020, a Tuesday. Subtracting 60 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 14 days left in the middle of January to prep for an additional calculation before . But that’s all there is to it - understand the month, if 60 months will change the year, season, or fiscal calendar, and subtract your dates.

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

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 14 Jan, then set the calculation - 60 months, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 60 months in January will bring us back to or further.
  3. Counted backwards months from current day: date - 14 Jan, factoring in the 14 days left in January to calculate Tuesday January 14, 2020
  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 January 14

  • Current date: 14 Jan
  • Day of the week: Tuesday
  • New Date: Tuesday January 14, 2020
  • New Date Day of the week: Tuesday
  • Counting back form January will put you close, if not passed, the previous year.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 60 months ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 60 months is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 14 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 14 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Tuesday, 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 60 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()-60 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -60, cell:cell) for working months.

Working months in 60 calendar months

60 months is Tuesday January 14, 2020 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 60 months and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Tuesday January 14, 2020 date.
