Why five and not four?
Four weeks account for exactly 28 days, so every month is guaranteed four of each weekday. July 2025 runs 31 days, which leaves 3 days beyond four whole weeks, falling on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Thursday is among them, which is why it appears a fifth time, on July 31.
Five Thursdays and the payroll question
A month with five Thursdays matters to anyone paid weekly or fortnightly on that day, because it produces an extra pay date inside the same calendar month. In 2025 that happens in January, May, July, October, so July 2025 is one of 4 months this year.
Thursdays in July across other years
The same month shifts forward a weekday each year, and two across a leap year, so the answer moves with it.
