Default Extract a date for formula

If I have a REFERENCE date, say 5/12/05 and I need to subtract the number of
days from the beginning of the month so that cell H10 holds the number 12
that I can use in another formula.

If the date you are using is in cell A1, use this formula in H10:
=DAY(A1)

Isn't one singular?

Isn't the day of the month, the number of days since the start?
