What was the date 38 weeks ago?

Solution

Friday April 12, 2024

38 weeks ago from today was 12 Apr 2024, a Friday. We’re now subtracting quarters of the year. This means 38 weeks from 03 Jan changes fiscal calendars and could even push us into previous years. We’re currently in early part of January with 3 days left; this will bring us back to 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 38 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 38 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 03 Jan, then set the calculation - 38 weeks, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 38 weeks in January will bring us back to or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 03 Jan, factoring in the 3 days left in January to calculate Friday April 12, 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 April 12

  • Current date: 03 Jan
  • Day of the week: Friday
  • New Date: Friday April 12, 2024
  • New Date Day of the week: Friday
  • April is the end of the quarter and the beginning of spring. It's also Phillies Opening Day, so plan according and take the week off work! (Go Phils)
  • 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 38 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 38 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 3 days in January + 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 January's calendar: Begin by identifying 03 Jan on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, and the total days in (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 38 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()-38 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -38, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 38 calendar weeks

38 weeks is Friday April 12, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 38 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 April 12, 2024 date.
