December 31, 2017 is a Sunday. It is the 365th day of the year, and in the 52nd 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. 2017 is not a leap year, so there are 365 days in this year.

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, 2018, you can count up each day skipping Saturdays and Sundays.

Start your calculation with Jan 1, 2018, which falls on a Monday. Counting forward, the next day would be a Tuesday.

To get exactly one weekday before Jan 1, 2018, you actually need to count 3 total days (including weekend days). That means that 1 weekday before Jan 1, 2018 would be December 29, 2017.

If you're counting business days, don't forget to adjust this date for any holidays.
