I have 9.17 (and a few other numbers) that would like to turn it into Sep. 5th (and their equivalents) automatically. I have a formula to get it to Sep, but not the day. Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Can you please explain the logic 9.17 being Sep 5th?

Pretty simple. .17*30 days in September = 5.1 ~ 5th.

I got 9.17 from the intersection of the two lines on my graph, trying to figure out when I will be finished with the 2100 miles I'm riding to raise money for cancer research.

You're welcome.

The 30.5 is just a rough average of the number of days in a month.
30.4375 might be closer, based on =(365*4+1)/4/12

And come to think of it, the INT parts aren't really needed.
=DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),A1,MOD(A1,1)*30.4375)
