Solution

Sunday November 24, 2024

0

85 days ago from today was 24 Nov 2024, a Sunday. Calculating time over multiple months means we must count back weeks and weekends + the 28 February, typically moving from the middle of February into January and potentially further. Since today is Monday, we'll need to account for a full week before hitting weekend days. The key difference with subtracting two+ months, compared to shorter spans, is the need to consider several weekends from the middle of February to get Sunday November 24, 2024.

How we calculated 85 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 85 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 17 Feb, then set the calculation - 85 days, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 85 days in February will bring us back to January or further.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 17 Feb, factoring in the 17 days left in February to calculate Sunday November 24, 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 November 24

  • Current date: 17 Feb
  • Day of the week: Sunday
  • New Date: Sunday November 24, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Sunday
  • In Novemeber, account for the end of the year holidays when counting backwards.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 85 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 85 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 17 days in February + 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 February's calendar: Begin by identifying 17 Feb on a calendar, note that it’s Sunday, and the total days in January (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 85 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()-85 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -85, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 85 calendar days

85 days is Sunday November 24, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 85 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Sunday November 24, 2024 date.
