How many days before October 21 2026 is April 24, 2026?
Exactly 180. The count starts the day after October 21, 2026 and ends on April 24, 2026, which is the convention almost every contract and deadline uses: the start date is day zero, not day one. Counting the start date as well would give April 25, 2026 instead, one day later, and that single day is the most common mistake in deadline arithmetic.
