What was the date 96 months ago?


Solution

Wednesday March 29, 2017

Date Range: 96 months

96 months before today was 29 Mar 2017, a Wednesday. Subtracting 96 months in the past is usually just counting from March; 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 March to prep for an additional calculation before February. But that’s all there is to it - understand the month, if 96 months will change the year, season, or fiscal calendar, and subtract your dates.

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

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 29 Mar, then set the calculation - 96 months, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 96 months in March will bring us back to February or further.
  3. Counted backwards months from current day: date - 29 Mar, factoring in the 29 days left in March to calculate Wednesday March 29, 2017
  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 March 29

  • Current date: 29 Mar
  • Day of the week: Wednesday
  • New Date: Wednesday March 29, 2017
  • New Date Day of the week: Wednesday
  • March is usually not, but sometimes super tricky. Factor in Leap Years and Easter, which falls on varying dates each year, if you need a date in the past.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 96 months ago

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

Working months in 96 calendar months

96 months is Wednesday March 29, 2017 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 96 months and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Wednesday March 29, 2017 date.
