STEPS TO FIND THE DATE AFTER A PARTICULAR NUMBER OF DAYS IN EXCEL.

Choose the cell where the date after a particular number of days is need to be found.
Enter the following formula “=cell address of date+number of days after which date is needed”

EXPLANATION:

We have a date put in the cell H15.

The date is 2nd July 2020.

We need to find the date after three days from 2nd july.

We have used the formula in which we simply add 3 in the given date.

The result is 5th july 2020 which is as expected.
