What was the date 187 weeks ago?


Solution

Monday August 30, 2021

Date Range: 187 weeks

187 weeks ago from today was 30 Aug 2021, a Monday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2025. It looks like 187 weeks from now will bring us back to pre 2024 and we’ll need to factor this into our subtraction because it will change the calendar and fiscal years. For larger calculations like this, I start by subtracting total days, then counting backwards 1309 days on a calendar until getting my solution of Monday August 30, 2021.

How we calculated 187 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 187 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 31 Mar, then set the calculation - 187 weeks, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 187 weeks in March will bring us back to February or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 31 Mar, factoring in the 31 days left in March to calculate Monday August 30, 2021
  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: 31 Mar
  • Day of the week: Monday
  • New Date: Monday August 30, 2021
  • New Date Day of the week: Monday
  • 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.

Ways to calculate 187 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 187 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 31 days in March + 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 March's calendar: Begin by identifying 31 Mar on a calendar, note that it’s Monday, and the total days in February (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 187 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()-187 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -187, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 187 calendar weeks

187 weeks is Monday August 30, 2021 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 187 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Monday August 30, 2021 date.
