                       the online shopping promotion
                       as shown?

                       29 May 2020 to 5 July 2020 =             days




                        Method 1


                       29 May to 31 May             3 days
                       1 June to 30 June           30 days
                       1 July to 5 July          + 5 days
                                Total days         38 days




                        Method 2
                                                                                    Need to add additional
                       29 May to 31 May = 31 days – 29 days + 1 day                   1 day as 29 May is

                                            =  3 days                                considered as 1 day.
                       The number of days in June  =  30 days

                       1 July to 5 July = 5 days – 1 day + 1 day                    Need to add additional
                                                                                       1 day as 1 July is
                                        =  5 days                                    considered as 1 day.

                       Total days: 3 days + 30 days + 5 days = 38 days

                       29 May 2020 to 5 July 2020 =  38  days
