I want to find date by subtracting X number of days from a particular date in JavaScript. My JavaScript function accepts 2 parameters. One is the date value and the other is the number of days that needs to be subtracted.
For example, I pass my argument date as 27 July 2009 and i pass my other argument as 3. So i want to calculate the date 3 days before 27 July 2009. So the resultant date that we should get is 24 July 2009. How is this possible in JavaScript. Thanks for any help.

To subtract days to a JavaScript Date object, use the setDate() method. Under that, get the current days and subtract days. JavaScript date setDate() method sets the day of the month for a specified date according to local time.
Therefore, you can add or subtract days as easy as adding or minus the number of days in Excel. 1. Select a blank cell you will place the calculating result, type the formula =A2+10, and press the Enter key. Note: For subtracting 10 days from the date, please use this formula =A2–10.
Subtract dates using getTime() method And that's how you can subtract dates in JavaScript.
let yesterday=new Date(new Date(). getTime() - (1 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)); let last3days=new Date(new Date(). getTime() - (3 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000));
Simply:
yourDate.setDate(yourDate.getDate() - daysToSubtract); If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
