My shell script find all files 90 days older find /var/www/html/zip/data/*/*/*/*/* -type f -mtime

My shell script find all files 90 days older

find /var/www/html/zip/data/*/*/*/*/* -type f -mtime +90

that returns the output like

/var/www/html/zip/data/2011/jan/11/333333/Photos/a.jpeg

/var/www/html/zip/data/2011/jan/11/333333/Photos/b.jpeg

/var/www/html/zip/data/2011/jan/11/333333/Photos/c.jpeg

/var/www/html/zip/data/2011/feb/11/333333/Photos/a.jpeg

/var/www/html/zip/data/2011/feb/11/333333/Photos/b.jpeg

What would i need to do to just fetch unique folder path from the above output using the same Find command so the output should be

/var/www/html/zip/data/2011/jan/11/333333/Photos

/var/www/html/zip/data/2011/feb/11/333333/Photos

So i believe there would need to append something in the above Find command but don’t know what

Note: I would like to save the unique path in a variable
