96 days ago from today was 28 Sep 2024, a Saturday. Subtracting a number of days that spans over three months takes us beyond simple day-to-day subtraction into calculating across weeks and months, crucial for understanding fiscal calendars. Considerations include the day of the week, and the length of both January and , alongside seasonal and calendar transitions. Since today is Thursday, we'll have to adjust for the weekend, if you care about the number of work days. Given we're in the early part of of January, with 2 days left out of the 31, factoring in shifting weekends of that quarter becomes essential. For such extensive backward calculations, starting with week-by-week or month-by-month subtraction might offer clearer insights.

How we calculated 96 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 96 days ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 02 Jan, then set the calculation - 96 days, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 96 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 Saturday September 28, 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 September 28

  • Current date: 02 Jan
  • Day of the week: Saturday
  • New Date: Saturday September 28, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Saturday
  • Counting backward from September puts you back into the summer! September is the official start of fall.
  • 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 96 days ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 96 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 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 96 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()-96 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -96, cell:cell) for working days.

Working days in 96 calendar days

96 days is Saturday September 28, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 96 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Saturday September 28, 2024 date.
