What was the date 61 days ago?

Solution

Tuesday May 20, 2025

0

61 days ago from today was 20 May 2025, a Tuesday. Calculating time over multiple months means we must count back weeks and weekends + the 31 July, typically moving from the middle of July into June and potentially further. 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. The key difference with subtracting two+ months, compared to shorter spans, is the need to consider several weekends from the middle of July to get Tuesday May 20, 2025.

How we calculated 61 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 61 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

We started with date inputs: used current day of 20 Jul, then set the calculation - 61 days, and factored in the year 2025
Noted your current time of year: 61 days in July will bring us back to June or further.
Counted backwards days from current day: date - 20 Jul, factoring in the 20 days left in July to calculate Tuesday May 20, 2025
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 20

Current date: 20 Jul
Day of the week: Tuesday
New Date: Tuesday May 20, 2025
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 61 days ago

Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 61 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 20 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!).
Use July's calendar: Begin by identifying 20 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 61 times days by days, subtracting days from until your remainder of days is 0.
Use excel: For more complex days calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-61 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -61, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 61 calendar days

61 days is Tuesday May 20, 2025 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 61 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 20, 2025 date.
