What's the date 68 days from today?


Solution

Sunday December 29, 2024

68 days from today is 29 Dec 2024, a Sunday. Calculating over the equivalent days of a month means multiple weeks, multiple weekends and officially crossing into November from the end of October. Since today is Tuesday and still part of the beginning of the week we won't need to add additional days into next week. Key difference with adding days that span a full month is that shorter calculations might only require counting days and possibly adjusting for a single weekend. Adding 68 days across October requires us to account for multiple weekends, work schedules, and the specific nuances of being in the end of October jumping to November.

How we calculated 68 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 68 days to today's date gets calculated on each visit:

  • Started with date inputs: starting point: 22 Oct, Units to add: 68 days, and year: 2024
  • Noted your current time of year: 9 days in end of October
  • Added 68 days from current day: 22 Oct, factoring in there are 9 days left in before November
  • Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the 2024 fiscal calendar.

Ways to calculate 68 days from today

  1. Just calculate it: Start with a time from today calculator. 68 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 October's calendar: Begin by identifying on a calendar, note that it’s Sunday, and the total days in November (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 68 times by days, adding days from 22 Oct.
  3. Use Excel: Regardless of unit type, I use day calculations here. Type =TODAY()+68 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 68 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.

68 days is Sunday December 29, 2024 or could be Friday January 24, 2025 if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 68 days and only adds by the number of workdays in a week.
