685 years in the past was 29 Nov 1339, a Sunday. Subtracting 685 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 29 days from the end of November, so being in the end of of the month, you'll need to consider monthly changes as well. Weekly and daily changes most likely won't impact 685 years ago.

How we calculated 685 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 685 years ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 29 Nov, then set the calculation - 685 years, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 685 years in November will bring us back to October or further.
  3. Counted backwards years from current day: date - 29 Nov, factoring in the 29 days left in November to calculate Sunday November 29, 1339
  4. Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Ways to calculate 685 years ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 685 years is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 29 days in November + 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 November's calendar: Begin by identifying 29 Nov on a calendar, note that it’s Sunday, and the total days in October (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 685 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()-685 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -685, cell:cell) for working years.
