If the dominical letter is E, then Easter day is on 20 April.

(…) The council did not say what that day was to be but at the time Easter was celebrated on a Sunday virtually everywhere.
Writers have traditionally written abbreviated dates according to their local custom, creating all-numeric equivalents to day–month formats such as "11 December 2024" (11/12/24, 11/12/2024, 11-12-2024 or 11.12.2024) and month–day formats such as "December 11, 2024" (12/11/24 or 12/11/2024).

A calendar date is a reference to a particular day represented within a calendar system. The calendar date allows the specific day to be identified. The number of days between two dates may be calculated. For example, "25 December 2024" is ten days after "15 December 2024". The date of a particular event depends on the observed time zone.
