What was the date 53 months ago?


Solution

Saturday August 29, 2020

0

53 months before today was 29 Aug 2020, a Saturday. Subtracting 53 months in the past is usually just counting from January; however, longer calculations will push us from 2025 into 2024 or further. Even if the calculation remains within the year, I usually take note of the 29 days left in the end of January to prep for an additional calculation before . But that’s all there is to it - understand the month, if 53 months will change the year, season, or fiscal calendar, and subtract your dates.

How we calculated 53 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 53 months ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 29 Jan, then set the calculation - 53 months, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 53 months in January will bring us back to or further.
  3. Counted backwards months from current day: date - 29 Jan, factoring in the 29 days left in January to calculate Saturday August 29, 2020
  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 August 29

  • Current date: 29 Jan
  • Day of the week: Saturday
  • New Date: Saturday August 29, 2020
  • New Date Day of the week: Saturday
  • August is the beginning of Q3. Dates in previous months will be part of 1H fiscal years.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • 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 53 months ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 53 months is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 29 days in January + 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 January's calendar: Begin by identifying 29 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Saturday, 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 53 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()-53 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -53, cell:cell) for working months.

Working months in 53 calendar months

53 months is Saturday August 29, 2020 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 53 months and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Saturday August 29, 2020 date.
