Friday January 05, 1917

0

108 years in the past was 05 Jan 1917, a Friday. Subtracting 108 years in the past is usually simple. Anything under a decade can usually be counted on one hand. The biggest challenge will be skipping decades behind or even centuries. Additionally, we’re 5 days from the end of January, so being in the early part of of the month, you'll need to consider monthly changes as well. Weekly and daily changes most likely won't impact 108 years ago.

How we calculated 108 years 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 108 years ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 05 Jan, then set the calculation - 108 years, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 108 years in January will bring us back to or further.
  3. Counted backwards years from current day: date - 05 Jan, factoring in the 5 days left in January to calculate Friday January 05, 1917
  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 January 05

  • Current date: 05 Jan
  • Day of the week: Friday
  • New Date: Friday January 05, 1917
  • New Date Day of the week: Friday
  • Counting back form January will put you close, if not passed, the previous year.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.
  • Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation.

Ways to calculate 108 years ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 108 years is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 5 days in January + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your years and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
  2. Use January's calendar: Begin by identifying 05 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, and the total days in (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 108 times years by years, subtracting years from until your remainder of years is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex years calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-108 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -108, cell:cell) for working years.

Working years in 108 calendar years

108 years is Friday January 05, 1917 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 108 years and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Friday January 05, 1917 date.
