How many days before May 5 2027 is April 28, 2027?
Exactly 7. The count starts the day after May 5, 2027 and ends on April 28, 2027, 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 29, 2027 instead, one day later, and that single day is the most common mistake in deadline arithmetic.
