How many days before September 17 2026 is March 21, 2026?
Exactly 180. The count starts the day after September 17, 2026 and ends on March 21, 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 March 22, 2026 instead, one day later, and that single day is the most common mistake in deadline arithmetic.
