Q: What is 6 months before May 2029?

November 2028. Counting 6 months before May 2029 gives November 2028. Whole calendar months are counted, so the day of the month does not change: May 1 lands on November 1, the 15th on the 15th, and so on for every day of the month. May has 31 days and November has 30, so the last day of May 2029 lands on November 30 rather than spilling into December. November 2028 is Q4 of 2028 and has 30 days, starting on a Wednesday and ending on a Thursday.
