How do I subtract these two dates?

Question

@Model.Carta.ShippedDate.Value.ToString("HH") - @Model.Carta.CartaPDate.Value.ToString("HH") How i can subtract these dates?

How can you *what*? The verb "rest" makes no sense in this context. — , Apr 17 '17 at 16:31
Are you asking how to format the dates? Because that's answered [here](http://stackoverflow.com/q/6001654/215552)... — Heretic Monkey, Apr 17 '17 at 16:34

Before you convert the dates to strings, you can subtract them which will give you a Timespan (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.timespan(v=vs.110).aspx) You can then get total days like this:

(@Model.Carta.ShippedDate.Value - @Model.Carta.CartaPDate.Value).TotalDays

I believe this is what you are looking for.

Assuming EndDate and StartDate are a type of DateTime:

(EndDate - StartDate).TotalDays
