Solution

Saturday March 30, 2024

17 weeks ago from today was 30 Mar 2024, a Saturday. We’re now subtracting quarters of the year. This means 17 weeks from 27 Jul changes fiscal calendars and could even push us into previous years. We’re currently in end of July with 27 days left; this will keep us in July and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years. When I calculate backwards for larger weeks before today, I like to start by subtracting the days, then count backwards to find the correct weeks.

How we calculated 17 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 17 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 27 Jul, then set the calculation - 17 weeks, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 17 weeks in July will keep us in July and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 27 Jul, factoring in the 27 days left in July to calculate Saturday March 30, 2024
  4. Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for March 30

  • Current date: 27 Jul
  • Day of the week: Saturday
  • New Date: Saturday March 30, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Saturday
  • March is usually not, but sometimes super tricky. Factor in Leap Years and Easter, which falls on varying dates each year, if you need a date in the past.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation.

Ways to calculate 17 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 17 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 27 days in July + 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!).
  2. Use July's calendar: Begin by identifying 27 Jul on a calendar, note that it’s Saturday, and the total days in June (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 17 times weeks by weeks, subtracting weeks from until your remainder of weeks is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex weeks calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-17 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -17, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 17 calendar weeks

17 weeks is Saturday March 30, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 17 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Saturday March 30, 2024 date.
