1 day before January 1, 2010
Want to figure out the date that is exactly one hundred days before Jan 1, 2010 without counting?
Your starting date is January 1, 2010 so that means that 1 day later would be December 31, 2009.
You can check this by using the date difference calculator to measure the number of days before Jan 1, 2010 to Dec 31, 2009.

December 31st, 2009 is a Thursday. It is the 365th day of the year, and in the 53rd week of the year (assuming each week starts on a Sunday), or the 4th quarter of the year. There are 31 days in this month. 2009 is not a leap year, so there are 365 days in this year. The short form for this date used in the United States is 12/31/2009, and almost everywhere else in the world it's 31/12/2009.
What if you only counted weekdays?
In some cases, you might want to skip weekends and count only the weekdays. This could be useful if you know you have a deadline based on a certain number of business days. If you are trying to see what day falls on the exact date difference of 1 weekday before Jan 1, 2010, you can count up each day skipping Saturdays and Sundays.
Start your calculation with Jan 1, 2010, which falls on a Friday. Counting forward, the next day would be a Saturday.
To get exactly one hundred weekdays before Jan 1, 2010, you actually need to count 2 total days (including weekend days). That means that 1 weekday before Jan 1, 2010 would be December 30, 2009.
If you're counting business days, don't forget to adjust this date for any holidays.
