What was the date 88 days ago?

Solution

Tuesday December 31, 2024

Date Range: 88 days

88 days ago from today was 31 Dec 2024, a Tuesday. Calculating time over multiple months means we must count back weeks and weekends + the 31 March, typically moving from the end of March into February and potentially further. Since today is Saturday, the calculation could be adjusted for work days. But If you just want the overall days, nothing will change. The key difference with subtracting two+ months, compared to shorter spans, is the need to consider several weekends from the end of March to get Tuesday December 31, 2024.

How we calculated 88 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 88 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 29 Mar, then set the calculation - 88 days, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 88 days in March will bring us back to February or further.
  3. Counted backwards days from current day: date - 29 Mar, factoring in the 29 days left in March to calculate Tuesday December 31, 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 December 31

  • Current date: 29 Mar
  • Day of the week: Tuesday
  • New Date: Tuesday December 31, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Tuesday
  • December marks the end of the year, so account for all the out of office notifications when counting backwards.
  • 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 88 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 88 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 29 days in March + 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 March's calendar: Begin by identifying 29 Mar on a calendar, note that it’s Tuesday, and the total days in February (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 88 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()-88 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -88, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 88 calendar days

88 days is Tuesday December 31, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 88 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Tuesday December 31, 2024 date.
