How long 5 business days take
5 business days are exactly 1 working week. Starting on any weekday, you land on the same weekday 1 week later, 7 calendar days on: from a Tuesday, on a Tuesday. Starting on a Saturday or Sunday, the count begins on Monday, so you land on a Friday.
Skipping only Saturdays and Sundays, 5 business days take between 5 calendar days (starting on Sunday) and 7 calendar days (starting on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday). Each public holiday on a weekday inside the span adds one more calendar day.
| Start day | Lands on | Calendar days | Weekend days skipped |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monday | Monday | 7 | 2 |
| Tuesday | Tuesday | 7 | 2 |
| Wednesday | Wednesday | 7 | 2 |
| Thursday | Thursday | 7 | 2 |
| Friday | Friday | 7 | 2 |
| Saturday | Friday | 6 | 1 |
| Sunday | Friday | 5 | 0 |
The row for today’s weekday is marked. Starting on a Saturday or Sunday, the first business day is Monday.
