How we calculated 42 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 42 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 20 Jun, then set the calculation - 42 weeks, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 42 weeks in June will bring us back to May or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 20 Jun, factoring in the 20 days left in June to calculate Friday August 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 August 30

  • Current date: 20 Jun
  • Day of the week: Friday
  • New Date: Friday August 30, 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 42 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 42 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 20 days in June + 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 June's calendar: Begin by identifying 20 Jun on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, and the total days in May (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 42 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()-42 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -42, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 42 calendar weeks

42 weeks is Friday August 30, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 42 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 30, 2024 date.
