The two algorithms, worked for 2089

Western: the Anonymous Gregorian algorithm
a=18 b=20 c=89 d=5 e=0 f=1 g=6 h=6 i=22 k=1 l=6 m=0
h + l − 7m + 114 = 126, and 126 ÷ 31 = 4 remainder 2: month 4, day 2 + 1. April 3
Orthodox: Meeus’s Julian algorithm
a=1 b=3 c=18 d=27 e=0
d + e + 114 = 141, and 141 ÷ 31 = 4 remainder 17: Julian April 18. Plus 13 days: May 1

How the date of Easter is calculated explains each letter. The dates on this page agree with the US Census Bureau table (Western), the 5ko.free.fr tables (Western and Orthodox), each read September 28, 2026.
