What was the date 87 months ago?

Solution

Sunday July 23, 2017

0

87 months before today was 23 Jul 2017, a Sunday. Subtracting 87 months in the past is usually just counting from October; however, longer calculations will push us from 2024 into 2023 or further. Even if the calculation remains within the year, I usually take note of the 23 days left in the end of October to prep for an additional calculation before September. But that’s all there is to it - understand the month, if 87 months will change the year, season, or fiscal calendar, and subtract your dates.

How we calculated 87 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 87 months ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 23 Oct, then set the calculation - 87 months, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 87 months in October will bring us back to September or further.
  3. Counted backwards months from current day: date - 23 Oct, factoring in the 23 days left in October to calculate Sunday July 23, 2017
  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 July 23

  • Current date: 23 Oct
  • Day of the week: Sunday
  • New Date: Sunday July 23, 2017
  • New Date Day of the week: Sunday
  • July is one of the highest vacation months, so prepare for more OOO messages.
  • 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 87 months ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 87 months is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 23 days in October + 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 October's calendar: Begin by identifying 23 Oct on a calendar, note that it’s Sunday, and the total days in September (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 87 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()-87 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -87, cell:cell) for working months.

Working months in 87 calendar months

87 months is Sunday July 23, 2017 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 87 months and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Sunday July 23, 2017 date.
