What was the date 28 weeks ago?


Solution

Friday August 02, 2024

28 weeks ago from today was 02 Aug 2024, a Friday. We’re now subtracting quarters of the year. This means 28 weeks from 14 Feb changes fiscal calendars and could even push us into previous years. We’re currently in middle of February with 14 days left; this will bring us back to January or further. 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 28 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 28 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 14 Feb, then set the calculation - 28 weeks, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 28 weeks in February will bring us back to January or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 14 Feb, factoring in the 14 days left in February to calculate Friday August 02, 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 August 02

  • Current date: 14 Feb
  • Day of the week: Friday
  • New Date: Friday August 02, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Friday
  • 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.
  • Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation.

Ways to calculate 28 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 28 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 14 days in February + 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 February's calendar: Begin by identifying 14 Feb on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, and the total days in January (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 28 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()-28 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -28, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 28 calendar weeks

28 weeks is Friday August 02, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 28 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Friday August 02, 2024 date.
