What was the date 73 days ago?

Solution

Monday October 21, 2024

0

73 days ago from today was 21 Oct 2024, a Monday. Calculating time over multiple months means we must count back weeks and weekends + the 31 January, typically moving from the early part of January into and potentially further. Since today is Thursday, we'll have to adjust for the weekend, if you care about the number of work days. The key difference with subtracting two+ months, compared to shorter spans, is the need to consider several weekends from the early part of January to get Monday October 21, 2024.

How we calculated 73 days 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 73 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 02 Jan, then set the calculation - 73 days, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 73 days in January will bring us back to or further.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 02 Jan, factoring in the 2 days left in January to calculate Monday October 21, 2024
  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 October 21

  • Current date: 02 Jan
  • Day of the week: Monday
  • New Date: Monday October 21, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Monday
  • October marks the start of Q4 so counting backward will put you back into the 3 fiscal quarter.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 73 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 73 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 2 days in January + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . 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 January's calendar: Begin by identifying 02 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Monday, 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 73 times days by days, subtracting days from until your remainder of days is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex days calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-73 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -73, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 73 calendar days

73 days is Monday October 21, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 73 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Monday October 21, 2024 date.
