If today is July 4, 2023, what will be the date 200 days from now?
Correct Answer: January 20, 2024
- Step 1: Start with the date July 4, 2023.
- Step 2: Count the remaining days in July. From July 4 to July 31 is 27 days.
- Step 3: Add the days in August. August has 31 days.
- Step 4: Add the days in September. September has 30 days.
- Step 5: Add the days in October. October has 31 days.
- Step 6: Add the days in November. November has 30 days.
- Step 7: Add the days in December. December has 31 days.
- Step 8: Now, add the days counted so far: 27 (July) + 31 (August) + 30 (September) + 31 (October) + 30 (November) + 31 (December) = 180 days.
- Step 9: Subtract 180 from 200 to find out how many more days are needed: 200 - 180 = 20 days.
- Step 10: Count 20 days into January 2024. January has 31 days, so 20 days from January 1 is January 20, 2024.
