What was the date 62 days ago?


Solution

Wednesday February 21, 2024


62 days ago from today was 21 Feb 2024, a Wednesday. Calculating time spanning over the equivalent of a month means we must count back through multiple weeks and weekends, typically crossing back before April from the end of of April. Since today is Tuesday and still part of the beginning of the week we won't need to add additional days into next week.. The key difference with subtracting days over a full month, compared to shorter spans, is the need to consider several weekends, varying work schedules, and the nuances of transitioning from the end of of April into March.

How we calculated 62 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 62 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 23 Apr, then set the calculation - 62 days, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 62 days in April will bring us back to March or further.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 23 Apr, factoring in the 9 days left in April to calculate Wednesday February 21, 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 February 21

  • Current date: 23 Apr
  • Day of the week: Wednesday
  • New Date: Wednesday February 21, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Wednesday
  • Remember February has 28 or 29 days depending on Leap Year! This may not impact time in the past, but it will impact future dates.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.

Ways to calculate 62 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 62 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 9 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 23 Apr on a calendar, note that it’s Wednesday, 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 62 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()-62 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -62, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 62 calendar days

62 days is Wednesday February 21, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 62 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Wednesday February 21, 2024 date.
