How to Add or Subtract Time from Date?

  • I will start working on my physical fitness for the next 1 year. Today is 10th December 2021. What will be the date 1 year from today? What day will it be on that date?
  • What will be the date after 2 months and 3 weeks from today?

Questions like above are tricky to answer when the duration is long or complex.

These problems can be easily and quickly solved using our Date Calculator. However, let's try to understand the logic behind it.

The best practice to perform addition and subtraction between date and time is to add or subtract years with years, months with months, days with days, and so on. Start with years, months, weeks, and finally days. Most importantly, each result should be calculated separately then append to the initial date.

So, let's take some examples to understand it.

Example 1:

Initial Date: November 9, 2021
Find out the date after 2 years, 5 months, 1 week, and 4 days.

Solution:

  • November 9, 2021 + 2 years = November 9, 2023
  • November 9, 2023 + 5 months = April 9, 2024
  • April 9, 2024 + 1 week = April 16, 2024
  • April 16, 2024 + 4 days = April 20, 2024

So, the final date would be: April 20, 2024

Day on that date is: Saturday

Example 2:

Initial Date: January 2, 2019
Calculate the date before 3 months, 2 weeks and 1 day.

Solution:

In this case, we need to subtract time from a given date.

  • January 2, 2019 – 3 months = October 2, 2018
  • October 2, 2018 – 2 weeks = September 18, 2018
  • September 18, 2018 – 1 Day = September 17, 2018

So, the final date would be: September 17, 2018

Day on that date is: Monday

How to find Duration between Two Dates?

  • Today is December 12, 2021 and my exams start from March 18, 2022. How much time do I have for the preparation?
  • The business event will start on May 10, 2023. How many days remain from today?

These are the questions where you need to find the duration between two dates.

So, let's take an example.

Example:

Suppose, Start Date = September 23, 2021 and End Date = December 12, 2022
Find the duration between these two dates.

Solution:

So, when we place the above values in the calculator, we get 1 Year, 2 Months, and 18 Days.

In addition, we get:

  • Total Days = 445
  • Total Hours = 10680
  • and Total Seconds = 38448000
