Learn how to find the day of any date in Excel.

To extract the day from a date in Excel and find the day of any date, you can use the formula =TEXT(B5,"dddd"). This formula helps you convert a date into the day of the week. Simply enter a date into cell B5, and the formula will return the full name of the day (like "Monday" or "Tuesday"). To get the day from a certain date, place the date in B5 and use this formula to convert the date into the corresponding day. This method allows you to calculate and find the day of a date easily in Excel.

Explain using this formula

=TEXT(B5,"dddd")

The formula =TEXT(B5,"dddd") converts the value in cell B5 to a text string that represents the day of the week. Specifically, it uses the date value in B5 and formats it to display the full name of the day (e.g., "Monday," "Tuesday"). This is useful for extracting and displaying the day of the week from a given date in a more readable format within a spreadsheet.
