Is the 90/180 rule day count after a long-term visa affected by side-trips to other Schengen member states?

Consider a student in a Schengen country whose visa expires on August 31st. The student is a national of a country whose citizens are exempt from the requirement to obtain a Schengen visa for short-term stays, and has been present in the country continuously for over 90 days. This person would normally be allowed to stay for 90 days in the Schengen area, counting from September first.

Now suppose this student spent five days in August in a different Schengen country. Would that reduce the number of allowable days to 85, counting from September first?
