How the count is worked out
Step one: count the days in the month — 31 for December 2028. Step two: count the weekends. December 2028 starts on a Friday, so the Saturdays and Sundays fall on the dates shown in the table — 10 weekend days in total, leaving 21 weekdays. There is no third step: the answer is the number of days in the month, 31. The days between dates calculator does the same calculation for any date range, and the date calculator works out what date it is a number of days from now.
December in other years in other years
The same month in the adjacent years, for comparison — the number changes because the calendar shifts by one day each year (two after a leap year), so the same month starts on a different weekday.
| Year | Total days | Weekdays | Weekends | Business days |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 | 31 | 23 | 8 | 23 |
| 2028 | 31 | 21 | 10 | 20 |
| 2029 | 31 | 21 | 10 | 20 |
