I am trying to get a count of number of days between two days inside Linq Select new query but I am getting an output like this -00:03:42.2470000.

Below is my code. Any help will be appreciated.

What I have tried:

<pre>
              var dayInProcs = DateTime.Today;
			  var exportToexcel = data.admin.AsQueryable()
                .Include(x => x.employees.contractors)                 
                .Include(x => x.employees.contractorRoles) 
                .Where(x => x.employees.contractors.Id == 60);
				
				var roles = exportToexcel.Select x => new
				{
				delivered = x.ArrivalDate - x.SortedDate, // I want to get 20 here
                DaysInProcess = x.ArrivalDate - dayInProcs // And 5 here
               }).Distinct()),

Take a look at code below:

C#
DateTime ArrivalDate = new DateTime(2019,11,7);
DateTime SortedDate = new DateTime(2019,10,18);

int daysDiff = (ArrivalDate - SortedDate).Days;
//returns 20 ;)

Hi Thanks for your solution but this does not work in Entity Frame work. I have solved it be using DbFunctions.DiffDays
