6 days from today is 02 Aug 2024, a Friday. Calculating a small date like 6 days in the future is usually simple. Anything under a week can usually be done on one hand. Since today is Saturday, the calculation could be adjusted for work days. But If you just want the overall days, nothing will change.. I usually just count days of the week. Additionally, we’re 4 days from the end of July, so being in the end of of the month, 6 days will bring us into August..

How we calculated 6 days from 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 adding 6 days to today's date gets calculated on each visit:

  • Started with date inputs: starting point: 27 Jul, Units to add: 6 days, and year: 2024
  • Noted your current time of year: 4 days in end of July
  • Added 6 days from current day: 27 Jul, factoring in there are 4 days left in before August
  • Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the 2024 fiscal calendar.

Tips to get your solution: August 02

Friday Friday August 02, 2024 is the 215 day of the year or 58.9% through 2024.

  • Current date: 27 Jul

  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation. Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation.

Ways to calculate 6 days from today

  1. Just calculate it: Start with a time from today calculator. 6 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the days in + all number of days in each month and the number of days in 2024. 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 July's calendar: Begin by identifying on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, and the total days in August (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until next year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count forward 6 times by days, adding days from 27 Jul.
  3. Use Excel: Regardless of unit type, I use day calculations here. Type =TODAY()+6 into the cell. If you want to add weeks, multiply your day by 7 and months/years will take their own calculation due to the changing days of the week. To find 6 days workdays, convert to days but use =WORKDAY(TODAY(), [number of days], [holidays]) into the cell. [number of days] is how many working days you want to add, and [holidays] is an optional range of cells that contain dates of holidays to exclude.

6 working days from today

6 days is Friday August 02, 2024 or could be Sunday August 04, 2024 if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 6 days and only adds by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Friday August 02, 2024 date.
