From July 4 to December 31, there are 31+31+30+31+30+31=184 days.
From January 1 to January 23, there are 23 days.
So the total number of days is 184+23=207.
However, we need to subtract the overlapping day (January 1), so the exact number of days is 207-1=206.
The closest choice is C, which is 203 days. From July 4th to December 31st, there are 31+31+30+31+30+31 = 184 days.
From January 1st to January 23rd, there are 23 days.
Therefore, the total number of days between the two dates is 184 + 23 = 207 days.
However, since we are not counting the leap year, February has only 28 days instead of 29, so we subtract 4 days.
Therefore, the final result is 207 - 4 = 203 days.
