What was the date 5 weeks ago?

Solution

Saturday June 22, 2024

0

5 weeks ago from today was 22 Jun 2024, a Saturday. Week conversions that span across multiple months now must consider the 27 days left in end of July because 5 weeks will keep us in July and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years. Run this calculation first by understanding where we’re at in July, identify if we’ll drop into June, and count backwards by 5.

How we calculated 5 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 5 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

We started with date inputs: used current day of 27 Jul, then set the calculation - 5 weeks, and factored in the year 2024
Noted your current time of year: 5 weeks in July will keep us in July and we don’t need to worry about adjusting months or years.
Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 27 Jul, factoring in the 27 days left in July to calculate Saturday June 22, 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 June 22

Current date: 27 Jul
Day of the week: Saturday
New Date: Saturday June 22, 2024
New Date Day of the week: Saturday
June is the beginning of summer so be careful, counting backwards could put you in the chilly months of spring and winter.
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 5 weeks ago

Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 5 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!).
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 5 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()-5 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -5, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 5 calendar weeks

5 weeks is Saturday June 22, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 5 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 June 22, 2024 date.
