What was the date 16 weeks ago?

Solution

Thursday January 04, 2024

16 weeks ago from today was 04 Jan 2024, a Thursday. We’re now subtracting quarters of the year. This means 16 weeks from 25 Apr changes fiscal calendars and could even push us into previous years. We’re currently in early part of April with 26 days left. This will keep us in April and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.. When I calculate backwards for larger weeks before today, start with subtracting the days, then count backwards to find the correct weeks.

How we calculated 16 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 16 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

We started with date inputs: used current day of 25 Apr, then set the calculation - 16 weeks, and factored in the year 2024
Noted your current time of year: 16 weeks in April will keep us in April and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.
Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 25 Apr, factoring in the 26 days left in April to calculate Thursday January 04, 2024
Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for January 04

Current date: 25 Apr
Day of the week: Thursday
New Date: Thursday January 04, 2024
New Date Day of the week: Thursday
Counting back form January will put you close, if not passed, the previous year.
This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.

Ways to calculate 16 weeks ago

Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 16 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 26 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 25 Apr on a calendar, note that it’s Thursday, 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 16 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()-16 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -16, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 16 calendar weeks

16 weeks is Thursday January 04, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 16 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Thursday January 04, 2024 date.
