What was the date 140 weeks ago?

Solution

Tuesday August 17, 2021

140 weeks ago from today was 17 Aug 2021, a Tuesday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2024. It looks like 140 weeks from now will bring us back to pre 2023 and we’ll need to factor this into our subtraction because it will change the calendar and fiscal years. For larger calculations like this, I start by breaking calendar.day_name[solution.weekday()]n the year, then move into 140 weeks.

How we calculated 140 weeks before today

All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how 140 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

We started with date inputs: used current day of 23 Apr, then set the calculation - 140 weeks, and factored in the year 2024
Noted your current time of year: 140 weeks in April will bring us back to March or further.
Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 23 Apr, factoring in the 13 days left in April to calculate Tuesday August 17, 2021
Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for August 17

Current date: 23 Apr
Day of the week: Tuesday
New Date: Tuesday August 17, 2021
New Date Day of the week: Tuesday
August is the beginning of Q3. Dates in previous months will be part of 1H fiscal years.
This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 140 weeks ago

Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 140 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 13 days in April + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your weeks and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
Use April's calendar: Begin by identifying 23 Apr on a calendar, note that it’s Tuesday, and the total days in March (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until last year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count backwards 140 times weeks by weeks, subtracting weeks from until your remainder of weeks is 0.
Use excel: For more complex weeks calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-140 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -140, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 140 calendar weeks

140 weeks is Tuesday August 17, 2021 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 140 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Tuesday August 17, 2021 date.
